The true battlefield experience comes to PC in WWII: Frontline Command

May 31, 2002  Fresh from a hit unveiling at E3, Codemasters today revealed new screens from World War II: Frontline Command, the upcoming real-time strategy epic for PC, being developed by The Bitmap Brothers.

World War II: Frontline Command is a squad-based action RTS game that captures the heroism of some of World War II’s most significant battles. It will be the first action-RTS to deliver a true recreation of the battlefield experience and effectively portray the psychology of warfare, rather than the sterile theory of war gaming.  As a commander of Allied forces in Europe in the last year of World War II, players enter into combat with the Axis forces to drive the enemy back deep inside its own territory. The single player campaign will feature 25 missions, starting with the initial allied assault on June 6, 1944 and ending at Hitler's lair in mountainous southern Germany.

Currently in development at The Bitmap Brothers' studio in East London, World War II: Frontline Command is due to be published this autumn for PC. The game's web site is located at: http://www.codemasters.com/ww2
