Destineer?s Bold Games unit has announced Elite Warriors: Vietnam for PC. This intensely realistic first-person shooter is scheduled for release in early spring 2005 with a MSRP of $29.99.
Each mission in Elite Warriors: Vietnam was developed with the direct assistance of former Studies and Observations Group (SOG) member and best-selling author, Maj. John L. Plaster. Serving three full combat tours as a recon team leader during the Vietnam War, Maj. Plaster led small 6-8 man recon teams on covert missions along the Ho Chi Minh Trail in Laos. Maj. Plaster?s SOG recon company was the highest decorated unit of the Vietnam War with five Congressional Medal of Honor recipients- men who became legends in the Special Ops community. The same dangers and obstacles SOG had to overcome to earn a Presidential Unit Citation in 2001 are waiting for you in Elite Warriors: Vietnam.
In Elite Warriors: Vietnam, you will fight along side Green Beret commandoes as you conduct classified missions deep in Southeast Asia. By using patrol techniques still being used today in Iraq and Afghanistan you will rescue downed pilots, ambush convoys, seize enemy prisoners, and discover targets for air attacks.
Elite Warriors: Vietnam faithfully recreates the secret world of small teams operating deep behind enemy lines. Players will lead these teams of Green Berets and Montagnard tribesmen deep into Laos, along the heavily occupied Ho Chi Minh Trail. Each mission offers multiple challenges giving players a new experience each time they play.
?This is the way we actually operated, they got it right,? said retired Major John L. Plaster. ?Enemy uniforms, terrain, weapons ? everything in this game is so close to what we encountered during the war that it will send a chill down the spine.?
As an added bonus, Elite Warriors: Vietnam will include an excerpt and photos from the critically-acclaimed book, Secret Commandos, written by Major John L. Plaster.
Elite Warriors: Vietnam was developed by New Jersey-based nFusion Interactive, who bring an authentic game which sets new standards for realism. For more information about Elite Warriors: Vietnam, please visit the game?s official web site at www.boldgames.com.
