Covert tactics and explosive action in the \u2018Open World Modern Warfare\u2019 video, now available from www.flashpointgame.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

– Wednesday April 1st 2009 \u2013 From the initial deployment of a US Marine Corps fireteam through to the moment when a 155mm Howitzer strike blasts the landscape, Codemasters\u00ae and Atari Australia, one of Australia\u2019s leading sources of interactive entertainment, today revealed Operation Flashpoint\u00ae: Dragon Rising in action with the release of the \u201cOpen World Modern Warfare\u201d gameplay video, now available from www.flashpointgame.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Presenting tactical, immersive warfare on a scale never seen before in a shooter, the new video demonstrates how Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising takes gamers to the vast 220 km\u00b2 island of Skira, a rigorously researched and meticulously recreated battlefield, located off the eastern coast of Russia and north of Japan. The game authentically recreates conflict on a 360-degree theatre of war, allowing players to approach objectives on Skira from any direction. On this immense and realistic battlefield, where one bullet can kill, players face the fear and mortality felt by soldiers immersed in deadly modern warfare as they are challenged to survive the rapidly evolving situations of battle.<\/p>\n

As the epic campaign unfold, players will fight as US Marines Infantry and Special Operations Forces fireteam leaders against the military might of a division from the People\u2019s Liberation Army of China, in an attempt to prevent a flashpoint engagement over oil erupting into a full blown international war. From intense fire fights through to paced tactical decision making, Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising recreates the brutal reality of the modern combat experience with serious attention to the detail of the weapons, equipment and tactics of the armed forces.<\/p>\n

In addition to the extensive single player campaign, an in-depth co-op multiplayer component will be featured, enabling squads of four players to work tactically through the intense campaign together. Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising is set to deliver the most accessible, engaging and visceral sandbox shooter of the year and it\u2019s coming this winter for the Xbox 360\u2122 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft\u00ae, the PLAYSTATION\u00ae3 computer entertainment system and Games For Windows\u00ae.
