Video Gaming News - February 2005
Reno, NV (February 24, 2005) - BattleBorne Entertainment today
announced the development of the studio's second game 6GUN (working title). 6GUN
is a third person modern tactical-action game being designed for the PlayStation
2, Xbox, and PC.
From BattleBorne:
6GUN is a third person, tactical-action, modern combat game. In 6GUN you are
the leader of an assault team in the highly classified GUNSLINGER program
operated by the Special Operations Command (SOCOM). When diplomacy fails, and
the US government needs a "deniable" military solution to its problems abroad,
they call on the GUNSLINGERS.
The GUNSLINGER record of successful missions was recently shattered with a
failed operation, and political pressures have relegated them to the second
string of Special Operations while better known groups are assigned the best
missions. GUNSLINGER Assault Team 2 is assigned a new leader (the player) and
given equipment and personnel recovery missions in South America. In the course
of the mission in the jungles of South America, the GUNSLINGERS discover
surprisingly detailed information about Typhoon Class Ballistic Missile
Submarines and the Soviet Northern Fleet in the possession of an international
arms trafficker. Soon after, a Typhoon in the port of Primorsk for disarmament
is attacked and boarded. A SOCOM operation to retake the sub ends in the
detonation of a nuclear device and loss of an entire SEAL team, leaving the
world in shock, and SOCOM in chaos.
As a result, the GUNSLINGERS are thrust back onto the center stage in the world
of clandestine operations and begin to hunt those responsible for the attack in
Primorsk. The hunt will take the player through 4 campaigns and at least 12
different levels, giving the avid gamer hours and hours of exciting combat
gameplay! Gameplay will range from small unit combat, to close quarters battle (CQB),
hostage rescue, demolitions, sniping from a helicopter gunship, High Altitude
Low Opening (HALO) parachute insertions, and take the GUNSLINGERS around the
world. 6GUN will be released on the PC, Xbox and PS2 in 2006.
