"The film adaptations of Tom Clancy's novels always thrill audiences with their intensity and action-based realism, which is the same formula for making great games," said Laurent Detoc, president of Ubi Soft Entertainment Inc. "The Sum Of All Fears will give players the chance to fully experience the fast-paced action of this Tom Clancy bestseller at home."
Developed by Ubi Soft's Red Storm Entertainment, the North Carolina based studio known for their popular Tom Clancy games, the PC version will feature action-oriented gameplay appealing to a wide audience. The technology behind the new game combines the physics and graphic capabilities of TomClancy's Ghost Recon, the 2001 Game of the Year*, and the familiar gameplay style of the best-selling Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six franchise.
