Get closer than ever to the fury of combat with Call of Duty 3, as you fight through the Normandy Breakout, the Allied campaign that paved the way for the liberation of Paris and the fall of Nazi-occupied Europe. Players will feel the rush of unrelenting action as they challenge German forces from four allied sides through single and multiplayer missions that unfold like a gripping and epic war movie experience. Call of Duty 3 from Activision's Treyarch is on sale now for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, as well as both the Xbox video game and entertainment system and the PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system.

Built from the ground-up, Call of Duty 3 takes full advantage of next-generation technology and a new physics engine to deliver a living battlefield where cover is ripped apart by gunfire and explosions; blades of grass are trampled beneath tank treads and soldiers' feet and uniforms wrinkle and fold like real fabric. Battle Actions require players to engage in life-or-death, hand-to-hand combat with enemies, plant explosives and fire mortars, further immersing them into the most authentic WWII experience to date.

In the ultimate character-driven experience through a continuous and compelling story of bravery, loyalty and teamwork, players step into the shoes of four ordinary soldiers ? American, British, Canadian and Polish ? to fight through The Normandy Breakout, the historic campaign that led to the liberation of Paris and brought the Allies onto the doorstep of victory.

Call of Duty 3 serves up intense infantry and vehicle simultaneous multiplayer action, allowing Xbox Live players to go online for Axis vs. Allies team-based gameplay for up to 24 players. In addition to Headquarters, Capture the Flag, Battle and Team Battle modes, Treyarch has added War and Single Flag ? Capture the Flag. War centralizes the action on common points of interest, promising fast and furious combat on the battlefield, while Single Flag ? Capture the Flag forces each team into fierce conflicts over a common objective. In Call of Duty 3, multiplayer fans have more tools in their arsenal: commandeer multiple-occupancy vehicles, mantle tanks, plant anti-personnel mines in strategic areas and rank-up to maximize the strength of your special class ability.

Call of Duty 3 is rated BBFC 15.
