Video Gaming News - April 2003
Bellevue, WA (April 29, 2003) - Kemco today announced Rogue Ops, an
action adventure game for PlayStation 2, GameCube, and Xbox.
From Kemco:
Slated for a Q4 2003 release, Rogue Ops is planned to have Xbox Live
functionality, complete with downloadable content, as well as other exclusive
platform specific extras for the next-generation consoles.
“We are extremely excited about the promise of Rogue Ops,” said Glenn Halseth,
Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Kemco. “Early feedback on the title is
that we have something very special and we are eager to place it in the hands of
gamers later this year.”
In Rogue Ops, Kemco exposes the underground world of anti-terrorist
operatives. Rocked from normality by an explosion that claimed her daughter and
husband, ex-Green Beret Nikki Connors exploits her new role as leading lady to
further her personal quest for vengeance. After receiving two years of intense
training for the most covert of assignments, she is unleashed upon her nemesis,
Omega 19, the most sinister terrorist organization on the globe and a cancerous
threat to the free world.
Eight challenging missions will put players to the test, each containing new
objectives, characters and obstacles. As Nikki interacts with fellow team
members and foes, Rogue Ops provides an engaging and often sharp-tongued
dialogue, giving additional life to the storyline and advancing the plot as
players delve deeper into gameplay. The game’s soundtrack and outstanding audio
effects set an additional tone for Rogue Ops, immersing players deep into
the world of government operations as they move from mission to mission.
Trained for survival in any situation, Rogue Ops leading lady uses her
training, skills and determination to survive and succeed in her undercover
world. Innovative stealth elements provide players with precise mission
execution, as Nikki can blend in shadows, pick the pockets of unsuspecting
guards, and use a novel stealth combo combat system. Additionally, the game’s
design allows Nikki to carry and conceal the bodies of enemies, leaving no trace
of her presence behind for the Omega 19 regime to discover.
An expert with stealth weapons, firearms and explosives, Nikki has a
multitude of special tools at her disposal. Ten weapons are featured in the
game, including a variety of pistols, dart gun, sniper rifle, grenades and
mines. Devices such as a special vision mode that combines infrared, low light
and x-ray vision are also present to reveal hidden dangers throughout gameplay.
Rogue Ops is slated for a Q4 2003 release, and has a suggested retail price
of $49.99.
