IL-2 Sturmovik - The Forgotten Battles
Acclaimed combat flight simulator to include Finnish and Hungarian Campaigns.
Ubi Soft Entertainment today announced that its multi-award winning WWII combat flight simulation title IL-2 Sturmovik is to be expanded with the release of an add-on pack in Fall 2002.
Owners of IL-2 Sturmovik and the gaming community as a whole will warmly welcome the news of the add-on. Following its' release last November, IL-2 Sturmovik set new standards of realism and gameplay and swept almost every gaming award on its' way to become the most critically acclaimed flight simulation title for 2001.
"The feedback from gamers across the world has been tremendous for IL-2 Sturmovik" said Carl Norman, Executive Producer, Ubi Soft Entertainment. "Since release, we have received many requests from fans for an official expansion pack. Thus, Oleg Maddox and his team at 1C are responding with another top quality product in the add-on pack."
"IL-2 Sturmovik has been an outstanding success for 1C", said Nikolay Baryshnikov, International Sales Director, 1C Company. "It was doubtless the second Russian game after Tetris that was so highly praised by gamers and press worldwide. Therefore, we are looking forward to producing more top notch products, starting with IL-2 Sturmovik - the Forgotten Battles (expansion pack) this Fall."
Plans for the expansion include new campaigns set in the Finnish and Hungarian fronts. New single and multiplayer missions as well as several new playable and AI controlled Russian, German and British aircraft are also planned. Ubi Soft and 1C:Maddox Games developers are also considering the addition of aircraft models created or modified by third parties, including those created by fans of the game.
IL-2 Sturmovik is the world's most realistic WWII combat flight simulation, allowing you to fly more than 30 types of Russian, German and American planes, engage in air-to-air and air-to-ground battles, destroy any ground object, such as buildings, bridges, airfields, and much more. Play campaign missions and track your career (with ranks and awards), fighting against intelligent AI opponents and multi-play with up to 32 humans or AI players in dogfight or cooperative modes.
