Video Gaming News - May 2004
Redmond, WA (May 7, 2004) - Microsoft Game Studios today announced
that the official site for MechAssault 2: Lone Wolf is now live at
www.xbox.com/mechassault2.
From Microsoft:
The site contains stunning new screens, gameplay descriptions and a list of
features for this highly anticipated new 'Mech title for Xbox. MechAssault 2:
Lone Wolf will offer an entirely fresh and exciting gameplay experience for
seasoned combat veterans and newcomers alike. Players will battle on foot, in
the air and in massive 'Mechs as they attempt to control the Inner Sphere.
Microsoft Game Studios has also updated the name of the game to MechAssault 2:
Lone Wolf to reflect the enhanced single player experience and more strategic
gameplay that is focused on the player, not the machine. The intense action,
destruction and easy pick-up-and-play game style is still there; but now solo
gamers will find the single player campaign is now significantly richer, with a
deeper storyline, new vehicles, NPC interaction and missions delivered on the
fly.
“MechAssault 2 is about you, the player -- not the machine," said TJ Wagner,
producer of MechAssault 2. "You’re the lone surviving MechWarrior from the
Wolf’s Dragoons fighting to hold back the tide of chaos."
MechAssault 2: Lone Wolf is in development by Day 1 Studios, creators of the
original MechAssault for Xbox. In MechAssault 2: Lone Wolf, gamers will be able
to step outside the 'Mech and live the life of a human pilot in a fresh new
single player game. Tanks, VTOLs and BattleArmor will offer players plenty of
opportunities to rain destruction on their opposition in both single and
multiplayer games. Xbox Live gamers will enjoy a whole new level of strategy, as
BattleArmor-equipped players 'jack enemy 'Mechs and VTOLs drop supplies to their
teammates. Both online and off, MechAssault 2: Lone Wolf will offer players an
unparalleled gaming experience. MechAssault 2: Lone Wolf is set to arrive on
retail shelves in January 2005.
