Svenska förläggaren #Paradox har under helgen flaggat för utgivning av ryska #Akellas turordningsbaserade strategispel #Galactic Assault. Beskedet ges i en presskommuniké som utlovar fyra olika raser, ett "realistiskt" stridssystem, möjlighet att förbättra och utveckla stridande enheter samt en dygnscykel med vädereffekter. Spelet har tidigare kallats Inhabited Island: Battlefield och kan på nytt beskådas hos FZ Images där ett dussin nya bilder inväntar åskådare. Lanseringen är tänkt att ske någon gång under [[2007 | årets]] tredje kvartal.

Rysk science-fiction-baserad strategi nu i svenska händer

New York, USA (April 26, 2007) - Global publisher Paradox Interactive announced today that it has signed a new turn-based strategy Sci-Fi adventure through Akella. Galactic assault, previously known under the working name Inhabited Island is developed by Wargaming.net and scheduled to release worldwide during Q3, 2007.

Players will be thrust into a deep and harrowing story as four unique races battle for supremacy on the planet Saraksh. Each race possesses and can easily develop distinguishable technologies, leading to the presence of vastly different heavy armored units, transport units and aviation units on the battlefield. The battles take place among vivid extraterrestrial landscapes in 3D with day and night changes as well as dynamic weather conditions that affect the gameplay.

"Akella has become a major player in the development and publishing of quality PC games and we are thrilled to enter this long-term partnership with one of Russias most acclaimed companies" said Fredrik Wester, Executive Vice President."

"We have followed the development of this title closely as we are great fans of Massive Assault developed by Wargaming.net. We are convinced that the unique dynamics and gameplay in Galactic Assault will appeal to even the most jaded strategy gamers, Mr. Wester continued."

In addition to the interesting story line, Galactic Assault offers a revolutionary tactical combat system, more than 70 unique units of great power and high-definition visuals that will immerse players in a horrendous story of war and survival.

Game features include:

  • Immersive storyline based on the Sci-Fi novel "Inhabited Island".

  • 4 totally unique races: Land of the Fathers, Khonties, Barbarians and Island Empire.

  • Realistic battle system (camouflage, fog of war, return fire, mine laying, fortifications, land and air troop carriers).

  • Advanced technology tree and unit upgrade system.

  • Realistic full 3D environment with day/night change and weather effects.

  • Cinematic Camera mode showing the most dramatic moments.
