More on America's Army

May 22, 2002 7:11 AM

We reported earlier that the US Army is going to make a project based on the Unreal engine. According to a Press Release issued today, this project is an "innovative, realistic computer game providing civilians with an inside perspective and a virtual role in today's premier land force, the U.S. Army". The action-packed "Operations" portion allows up to 32 players to enter into "virtual service" with the U.S. Army on the same unit mission. (In other words - it's multiplayer)

"America's Army" will be available in August. The Army will distribute "America's Army" for free in response to requests at www.americasarmy.com and www.goarmy.com.

Man, those Iraqi's are going to have a blast playing this!

Update 1: Screenshots!
Update 2: An interview with one of the producers @ HomeLAN.
