Spreading the good news today, Pandemic Studios have announced that their World War 2-based Action-Stealth title, The Saboteur, has begun shipping to stores across North America. For those of you unfamiliar with the title, here's a brief description ripped from the press release:
The Saboteur is set in World War II France and takes players through the seedy underbelly of Paris as hero Sean Devlin sets off on a revenge mission. Inspired by a true story, The Saboteur stars Sean Devlin who, motivated by personal revenge, fights, climbs, and races through open-world Paris, sneaking into the heart of the Nazi operations and sabotaging their every move. With the help of the French Resistance, the British intelligence, an arsenal of weaponry, street smarts and brawn, players will exact revenge on those who get in his way. From derailing trains and blowing up zeppelins to scaling famous Parisian landmarks, this action hero uses a broad range of weapons, explosives and vehicles to get the job done.
As Sean takes down enemies, the citizens of Paris are empowered to res22c7ist the tyrannical Third Reich and their eyes open to the colorful world around them. This innovative mechanic, called the Will to Fight, will change the way Paris is seen and felt from a dark and oppressed policed state to a bright and inspired world where the citizens fight back. As the player executes acts of sabotage against the occupying force, color returns to the stylized black and white world both figuratively and literally.
Cool concept...hope it turned out well! :)
