Codemasters’
Operation Flashpoint to Hit U.S. Store Shelves in Early September
Codemasters
officially announced today that its highly anticipated military
action/simulation game, Operation Flashpoint, will ship to North American
retail outlets the first few days in September of this year.
The
European version of Operation Flashpoint will be shipping in mid-June of this
year, but Codemasters has opted to postpone the release in the U.S. in order
to add new features for the North American market. The U.S. version will
differ slightly from the version that ships in Europe, the primary difference
being additional multiplayer capabilities, including dedicated server
functionality and enhanced network code. With multiplayer gameplay being such
a huge factor in the States, due to greater access to high-speed, broadband
Internet connections, Codemasters has decided to take full advantage of these
features in the initial U.S. release of the game.
A
free upgrade which will enable the European version of the game to utilize the
additional multiplayer functionality will be available around the time the
U.S. version ships.
