Microprose announced its new title "Special Forces: Team X" today, a team based shooter that innovates the genre with a new “Dynamic Battlefield” system that allows players to dynamically define the combat environment before each battle. Developed by Zombie Studios, and distributed by Atari, Special Forces: Team X will be available this Fall for PC and console download.
Special Forces: Team X (“STX”) is a team focused, 3rd person, cover-based shooter, featuring brutal firefights between elite squads of Special Forces operatives. STX takes place in tomorrow's world, one that is infested with conflicts amongst the geo-political power brokers. A world in which conventional warfare is dead, diplomacy is an affront to the hidden agenda of national objectives, and global strategy is accomplished using clandestine military power.
World-renowned independent developer Zombie Studios puts you in the role of an elite soldier in a Special Forces squad. The game features a “Dynamic Battlefield” system, enabling players to shape the battlefield by selecting individual environmental pieces, resulting in over 100 combinations of combat zone.
These incredibly diverse combatscapes highlight a range of other unique features:
- Advanced cover system allows players to vault, mantle and traverse through the environment with the game’s intuitive cover and clambering system.
- Exclusively licensed weapons including Kalashnikov, Colt, Famas, Sig Sauer and Mossberg, thanks to our partnership with Cybergun SA. Each weapon offers a large variety of upgrades and all are fully customizable.
- Asymmetrical game play with 2-4 teams and 5 frenetic game types. Cooperative play between team members is richly rewarded, giving small coordinated teams an advantage in the battle.
- Guard dogs that players can choose to into the firefight with them. Use the dogs of war to guard your back or eliminate the enemy.
