Gaming News - August 2006
Redwood City, CA (August 21, 2006) - Electronic Arts today announced
that Battlefield: Bad Company is currently in development for the Xbox 360 and
PlayStation 3.
From EA:
Built from the ground-up for next-generation consoles using Digital
Illusions’ bleeding-edge Frostbite™ game engine, Battlefield: Bad Company drops
gamers behind enemy lines with a squad of renegade soldiers who risk it all on a
personal quest for gold and revenge. Featuring a deep, cinematic single-player
experience loaded with adventure and dark humor, the game delivers the series’
trademark sandbox gameplay in a universe where nearly everything is
destructible.
“The heart of DICE’s multiplayer games is the frenetic, unpredictable nature of
the sandbox experience, where anything could happen at any moment, and that’s
what we’re bringing to the core of Battlefield: Bad Company’s single-player
campaign, said Karl Magnus Troedsson, senior producer at DICE. “In a world
that’s 90 percent destructible, the gameplay possibilities are infinite – the
battlefield is always changing, forcing players, teammates, and enemies to react
accordingly. Gamers will have total freedom to adapt to and tackle challenges in
creative Battlefield-style ways.”
Battlefield: Bad Company also will feature a full suite of the franchise’s
trademark multiplayer options with deep gameplay modes designed to take full
advantage of the game’s massively destructible environments.
Developed by Sweden-based developer Digital Illusions, Battlefield: Bad Company
is slated to ship for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in 2007. For more
