| Vivendi Games Mobile Launches Urban Attack on Mobiles Vivendi Games Mobile, a division of Vivendi Games, has announced the European launch of Urban Attack, a first-person-shooter mobile game which has already received impressive review scores and previews from press and fans from around the world. Urban Attack is now available on mobile phones throughout Europe and will be available starting January 2008 in North America. Urban Attack for mobile has been in development for more than twenty months and is the result of considerable research and development involving advanced 3D vectorial graphics and designed to function across more than 400 handsets. Urban Attack takes the shooting genre to an entirely new level with a number of features never before seen on mobile phones. The title features an extremely varied and deep plot-driven storyline including 60 different shooting phases, 100 character animations, three unique shooting modes and five weapons options. There are 14 different enemy behaviors, ten side-quests and four unique environments including an underwater adventure. The game also features a grid/keypad targeting system designed for optimum phone-specific ergonomics and a real-time sniping mode. The kinematics, enabled by state-of-the-art 3D rendering, produces a unique and fluid wire-frame appearance that reinforces the near-future storyline. The Urban Attack game is set in 2046, in the years following the third war in the Ukraine. A highly organized Russian Mafia is now in control of the Russian government. The main character, Yuri, is a 17-year-old agent in the UCCK network of technology and psy-ops experts set up by the Russian Mafia to operate covertly in the United States. The reason for the creation of the UCCK is unknown as are the details of Yuri's past. Yuri has a phenomenal aptitude for understanding sophisticated weaponry and knows that any attempt to discover the truth will be a very dangerous pursuit. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Game News :: home page |
