Scourge: Outbreak - Coming to XBLA this summer

Tragnarion Studios, a leading Spanish game development studio, announced today an all-new futuristic 3rd-person shooter for Xbox®Live Arcade, PlayStation®Network, and Mac – Scourge: Outbreak. Set to be released later this summer, Scourge: Outbreak, puts players in control of Echo Squad, an elite group of mercenaries hired to deal a decisive blow against the power-hungry Nogari Corporation.

In the game, players will face a seemingly insurmountable foe in the alien-infested facilities and military on Nogari Island. In order to survive, they must secure their own double agent who's infiltrated the Corporation and then recover a meteorite fragment that Nogari has used to develop a powerful new energy source, Ambrosia — which has given them global control. In order to succeed in the mission and save the world, players will need to utilize all their skill, firepower and certainly their teammates to the fullest.

While defeating the enemies on the island and recovering the meteorite seem daunting enough tasks, these are not the only challenges players will face. Each of the four playable characters has their own agenda and influence on the story — these emerge via flashbacks as the mission progresses. In co-op modes the significance of these events can be discussed with fellow players over voice chat.

Gameplay Features:

• Up to 4-player Co-op Campaign with over six hours of gameplay
  
• Four playable characters, each with different weapons, handling stats and a distinct combination of special abilities
  
• Unique flashbacks per playable character, showing you critical past events that shed a new light on your role in the story
  
• XP system which tracks your experience, unlocking powerful gameplay rewards in Campaign and Multiplayer modes
  
• Nine weapons, plus multiple variants of each to suit your playing style
  
• Up to eight players in death-match, team death-match and capture-the-flag multiplayer versus modes with five action-packed maps
  
• 37 Badges to unlock on Mac, and 12 Achievements/Trophies to unlock on 360 and PS3

Scourge: Outbreak will be released in Q3 this year. More information on the game can be found at [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
