'Anomaly: Warzone Earth' Gets Release Date - New Screens

by Rainier on March 20, 2011 @ 3:02 a.m. PDT

Anomaly: Warzone Earth, at its core, is an arcade approach to the real-time-strategy genre. You have the heat of an RTS battle raging around you, as you find yourself in the middle it all, supporting your squad, issuing orders, changing tactics when the situation forces you to do so.

Anomaly Warzone Earth is an extraordinary mixture of action and strategy in a reversed tower defense formula. The game tasks you with saving a near-future Earth from an alien onslaught. The invaders have captured the world’s major cities, building huge turrets that destroy everything in their path. It’s up to you to lead an armor squad through the streets of cities like Baghdad and Tokyo, planning the route and strategically choosing which units to deploy in order to crush the opposition. Take control of the Commander, whose special abilities and quick thinking will be vital in supporting the squad in its mission, as you engage in fast-paced, tactical battle across story campaign and two heart-pounding Squad Assault Modes.

It was the year 2018 when the world looked to the heavens and watched as a giant comet bore down on our planet. As it drew nearer, we began to see it for what it really was … debris from a giant alien craft. It entered our atmosphere, fracturing into pieces and plummeting to the ground. Within minutes, the fragments had become encased in giant domes the scientists called The Anomalies. We were the first ones on the scene. 14th Platoon. I know, I was there...


Baghdad. March 23, 2018.

Commander! Get the hell over here! What units are you taking into the battle? You're sure? All right. Start your engines, boys. What formation are you taking? APCs in the front? Good idea. Continous fire at the front guard just might help us break through their defenses.

What about tactics? Take the first left down that street, then curl around behind that mosque. Then you want to attack them from the rear? Hmm... not bad. Not a bad idea at all.

All right. Stay cool, commander. You'll have to support the squad on the ground yourself. Get me some goddamned information on those machines. Any questions? No? Fine. Good luck. Dismissed.
