Galactic Command: splitting episodes and exclusives

3000AD clarifies some of its episodic plans in its own forum for the PC/360 Galactic Command. Clarify? Looks more like a slight overhaul from where we’re sitting, as the details reveal that the PC and 360 will be getting exclusive episodes and even gameplay genres that all ultimately center around the Galactic Command universe. “Imagine, if you will, the different aspects of the popular sci-fi series, Star Trek.”

Or Fabula Nova Crystallis, for that matter. Everyone seems to be into metastories nowadays!

Galactic Command – Echo Squad is the new name of the original aerial/space action combat title based on the adventures of a group of Elite Force Pilots assigned to the Excalibur carrier. This title will remain a PC exclusive. We have this week signed an exclusive four episode deal for this title. More info will be announced by the publisher at the upcoming D.I.C.E. summit in Las Vegas. GALCOM:ES is on schedule for release in Q2/07.

Galactic Command – Bravo Team is an FPS only title based on the adventures of a team of elite marines assigned to a planetary starbase. It is also episodic and features some of our emerging technologies, including a heavily revamped terrain engine which uses SpeedTreeRT. More info and shots will be revealed this Summer, as well as additional info on what platforms it will be released on. GALCOM:BT is on schedule for release in Q4/07.

Galactic Command – Excalibur. Similar to “Echo Squad”, this title is also episodic and focuses on the Excalibur command carrier and the combat pilots assigned to it. This title will remain an XBox 360 exclusive. GALCOM:EX is on schedule for release in Q2/08.
