| Undercover: Operation Wintersun ? Beta Testing Has Begun The release date for Undercover: Operation Wintersun, Anaconda's espionage thriller in Nazi Germany, is drawing ever nearer. The upcoming adventure game by Sproing is now in beta testing, where it's put through its paces in the lead up to the release in September. Gamers will have the chance to gather a first playable look on Undercover: Operation Wintersun at the upcoming GC Games Convention in Leipzig, Germany (August 24 ? 27, 2006): Just visit the Anaconda theatre in Hall 5, booth G02. The year is 1943 and Undercover sees players take on the role of British physicist Dr. John Russell, who is sent into the lion's den by the MI6 to follow leads on German research into a devastating weapon of mass destruction. Russell is far from a trained agent, but is accompanied by two MI6 operatives on his dangerous foray into heavily guarded archives and secret research facilities ? but can he trust them or are they pursuing their own agenda? The shocking truth is revealed in Berlin's Heereswaffenamt: documents confirm that the Nazis are very close to completing the development of a "uranium bomb" ? a nuclear device. The new weapons system is already nearing the first test. Russell's mission takes on a terrifying new dimension: his search for the production facilities leads him right into the hands of a sinister German general, who has his own fanatical plans with the powerful, new weapon? Russell's mission is only just beginning. Even though the story of Undercover: Operation Wintersun is fictitious, it is grounded in historic facts, framed both by authentic details and actual events, as well as myths and speculation about the Third Reich. Intricately designed backgrounds, detailed 3D animation and many cinematic cutscenes create a frighteningly real atmosphere. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Game News :: home page |
