SEGA has just sent news that RTS title
Universe at War, is set for release on the Xbox 360 in addition to the already-announced PC version later in 2007.
Developed by Petroglyph, this combat-intensive RTS game enlists players in an epic struggle to prevent total alien domination of planet Earth.
Aliens taking over earth. OMG, who would have thought up such a storyline for an RTS!! (Enough sarcasm already! – Ed)
From the mouth of SEGA,
“Universe at War: Earth Assault for the Xbox 360 will employ a control scheme built from the ground up to ensure smooth gameplay and ease of command for console gamers. Great attention has been paid to implement a balanced gamescape for multiplayer games for console players. As in the PC version, weaponry and defenses can be modified in true real-time to take advantage of constantly shifting battlefield conditions. Fully customisable tech trees will allow players to control the development of technologies that they feel are key to victory.”
Corporo-quote alert! This time from Scott A. Steinberg, Vice President of Marketing for SEGA over in America, who chips in with,
“Universe at War: Earth Assault is poised to break new grounds in RTS gaming by entering the console arena. With a control scheme specifically designed with console gamers in mind, RTS gaming can now conquer the console frontier.”
