New Operation Flashpoint
Late last week Codemasters announced the next chapter in the Operation Flashpoint series - Operation Flashpoint: Red River on PC, Playstation 3 and Xbox 360.
Codemasters describe it as "an authentic and intensely personal US Marine Corps infantryman experience" that takes place in central Asia, Tajikistan along the Vakhsh River.
"Operation Flashpoint: Red River is being built around four player co-op online play, complete with a strong narrative, new enemies and combat scenarios to deliver gameplay that immerses players in the reality of war like never before. The new setting of Tajikistan is a diverse and exciting backdrop for the wide range of military challenges the US Marines face around the world in real life. We're excited to push the series in new directions while staying true to the core tactical combat that is the hallmark of Operation Flashpoint," said Sion Lenton, Creative Director.
"In creating Operation Flashpoint: Red River, we're building on our strengths whilst taking on board feedback from the community and focussing on key areas and enhancements to further refine the Flashpoint experience," said Adam Parsons, Executive Producer. "Whether playing solo or co-operatively, players will experience the tense and exhilarating tactical gameplay the series is famed for, expressed through a range of gameplay enhancements and an exciting new setting and narrative."
Operation Flashpoint: Red River is set to arrive in 2011.
