America's Army: True Soldiers developer diary video - Image 1Here's a developer diary video for upcoming Xbox 360 video game America's Army: True Soldiers. The title is being developed by Red Storm Entertainment using the Tom Clancy's GRAW 2 game engine. It will be published by Ubisoft and is scheduled to hit retail stores in a couple of days.

Being a tactical shooter focused on multiplayer campaign, it is only proper for America's Army: True Soldiers to sport real strategy and tactics being employed by the United States. Watch the video clip at the full article to know what Red Storm thinks about this.

Ubisoft logo - Image 1The U.S. Army-sponsored tactical first-person shooter made to simulate actual modern combat, Ubisoft's America's Army: True Soldiers for the Microsoft Xbox 360, is now available from Xbox Live as a demo. "Created by Soldiers, Developed by Gamers, Tested by Heroes" is the tagline, and we love the sound of it.

True Soldiers allows up to 15 players to go co-op in skirmishes and take territory back from enemy forces, or 16 players can go head to head in 8 on 8 Squad Engagement matches. As a simulator, soldiers will be equipped with authentic and updated U.S. Army gear, such as the Blue Force Tracker or the Raven UAV.

Previous America's Army titles were free, but it looks like this installment will go to retail. Since it's made with the GRAW2 engine, it shouldn't be too hard to shell out some dough. We've seen a video of the game in action before, and we sure are excited to get into the action.

Ubisoft logo - Image 1Bad news for the Xbox 360 consoles owners, at least if you're waiting for America's Army, and happen to live in Europe. Game publisher Ubisoft has just sent out word that they plan to release America's Army: True Soldier exclusively to America, with no plans being made for a Europe release for this US Army-sponsored tactical FPS game.

That's all the info we've got lined up for the moment, although readers can also pick up on gameplay snippets via a video we picked up the other day. What's next, a region-specific "Army" game per country?

Russia's Army has a pretty good ring to it, and we imagine Victor Suvorov wouldn't mind being approached for consultation. We'd like to hear from the Europe readers on their thoughts on this announcement, even as America's Army: TS readies for its September launch for North America.

The America's Army line of FPS games in the last gaming cycle created quite a stir when everyone found out that the US Army was openly involved in the creation of such a title. What would have anti-game activists said if they were as critical back then as they are today?

In any case, it'll be interesting to see if they'll have anything to say about this one when the next-generation iteration titled America's Army: True Soldier comes around for the Microsoft Xbox 360. We've got our first look at the actual gameplay and it looks like it'll be fun. Check it out:



The last America's Army titles were tactical FPS games that had you creating a special forces operative of your choice participating in the most dangerous combat missions around the world. This sequel is looking to share a lot of those elements. Details are a little hard to come by right now, but we'll fill you in as soon as new word is forthcoming.
