Codemasters announces Fall of Liberty

August 31st, 2006, 18:40 Posted By: wraggster

Codemasters has unveiled Fall of Liberty (working title) this afternoon, a new FPS for PS3, Xbox 360 and PC that's being developed by Spark Unlimited - responsible for Call of Duty: Finest Hour.

Fall of Liberty shoves players into an alternate reality in which 1950s America has been overrun and occupied by the Nazis. According to Codemasters, the game "Will deliver an explosive action experience in a world where famous real-world locations appear startlingly different under Nazi occupation." So, someone's scribbled a Hitler moustache on the Statue of Liberty and, er, Ronald McDonald goose-steps and executes Nazi salutes? Um, probably best if we give up there...

But, happily, Codemasters is on hand to describe how 1950s America under Nazi occupation actually looks and acts: "In Washington, the Swastika flies from The White House, and in a show of force to end rebellion, a nuclear attack on Manhattan is being planned. The odds are overwhelming, the reality of the situation shocking, but for players, it's time to join the resistance and fight a guerrilla war in the newly occupied territories."

And that's all we have for now, other than that Fall of Liberty is currently pencilled in for a Q4 2007 release. Hopefully we'll get first screenshots soon.
