Video Gaming News - May 2003
Los Angeles, CA (May 14, 2003) - THQ today unveiled Full Spectrum
Warrior, an authentic new military tactical-action game with game developer
Pandemic Studios. Developed exclusively for the Xbox, Full Spectrum Warrior will
be unveiled at the Electronic Entertainment Expo and is scheduled to be
available in early 2004.
From THQ:
Full Spectrum Warrior is based on a light infantry-training simulator
designed by Pandemic Studios for the U.S. Army as a tool to reinforce Army
doctrine and squad tactics amongst troops. Full Spectrum Warrior is a
squad-based, tactical-action game that delivers the experience of squad level
command in the heat of battle. The product was developed with expertise from
University of Southern California's Institute for Creative Technologies, which
worked with Pandemic to bring state-of-the-art technology to the game. Designed
to simulate today's challenges of urban combat missions, Full Spectrum Warrior
delivers a level of realism and accuracy that has never been seen in a
military-based game.
"This agreement aligns THQ with a proven development studio capable of
creating the type of realistic games today's market demands," said Peter Dille,
senior vice president, worldwide marketing, THQ. "With its unique
tactical-action style of gameplay and roots as an actual U.S. Army training
simulator, Full Spectrum Warrior allows players to truly experience the
precision and emotion of modern day military operations."
"Our work with the Army produced a compelling and unique game that
authentically captures the life of a U.S. Army soldier operating in an urban
warzone. Full Spectrum Warrior is a completely new type of game experience that
we are extremely excited to bring to consumers," said Josh Resnick, President,
Pandemic Studios. "THQ's publishing strength and their keen desire to build this
franchise and our business made them the perfect partner for this project."
