Eidos Interactive is proud to announce the new next-generation
title, CROSSFIRE debuting exclusively first on the Xbox
360 and
Windows.
When the US government needs intelligence but wants no
association with an operation, deniable operatives are dispatched.
Responsible for covert paramilitary actions, the Special Activities
Division is a division of the Central Intelligence Agency's former
Directorate of Operations, now the National Clandestine Service.
Members of the unit must bear no identity; no objects, papers or
clothing that could associate them in any way with their employees,
CROSSFIRE draws its inspiration from this group of highly skilled
individuals.
An innovative new two player co-op FPS from
award-winning developers, Pivotal Games, CROSSFIRE is set in today's
delicately balanced political climate, focusing on two covert field
operatives, experts in weapons and military tactics. CROSSFIRE allows
players the freedom to switch seamlessly, at any point, between these
two operatives to lay down cover fire, explore different paths through
levels, create a distraction or pin down the enemy under crossfire. The
intuitive command system encourages the player to focus 100% on action,
without a moment to catch their breath. Featuring full destructible
environments and Hollywood-esque explosive moments, the game takes
place in politically sensitive areas across South America, Africa and
Siberia.
"Being able to develop a true next generation title is
always both exciting and challenging," said Darren Barnett, Development
Director, Eidos. "We are able to utilise the power of Xbox 360 in so
many different areas, such as making use of true next-gen lighting
techniques, designing fully destructible environments and really
exploiting the game's concepts into new multiplayer areas with the Xbox
Live online game service. CROSSFIRE will offer a new approach to the
next-gen FPS genre."
