Boston, MA (February 22, 2005) - Irrational Games today announced that
Freedom Force vs. The 3rd Reich has gone gold.
From Irrational Games:
Freedom Force vs. The 3rd Reich marks Irrational’s first foray into
self-publishing. The official Freedom Force website,
www.freedomfans.com,
has expanded to include an on-line store where the much anticipated sequel can
be pre-ordered directly from Irrational. Freedom Force vs. The 3rd Reich will be
distributed to retail stores by Vivendi Universal Games throughout North
America. Freedom Force vs. The 3rd Reich will be available in stores on March

DESCRIPTION
Freedom Force vs. The 3rd Reich focuses on the continuing adventures of the
heroes of Patriot City… A new evil has emerged from the unlikeliest of places –
the past. As Nuclear Winter returns with a diabolical gambit to threaten the
free world, three new silver age heroes, Tombstone, Green Genie and
Quetzalcoatl, step up to help thwart evil. Freedom Force finds itself
transported to war-torn Europe circa WWII where the team must face its greatest
threat yet! The group will have to make alliances with Sky King, Black Jack and
Tricolour, three Golden Age heroes willing to sacrifice everything to save the
world from the original axis of evil! Freedom Force vs. The 3rd Reich has all
the city-smashing, bad-guy bashing fun of the first game but further enhances
the experience of controlling a team of heroes with all their own strengths,
weaknesses and personalities.
With an all-new 3D real-time tactical combat engine, a completely revamped
multiplayer experience, deep RPG character development and a rich storyline,
players will utilize a variety of characters and abilities to defeat an array of
villains in dynamic and completely destructible interactive environments!
