Tom Clancy’s EndWar public beta slated in November
We’re hearing more and more about Tom Clancy‘s EndWar with each passing day. A couple of days ago, we learned that the title will have full support for voice-activation which is good news since consoles don’t mix well with RTS games in general.
During Ubidays 07, a new trailer video was shown with complete commentary from the devs themselves. Today, Ubisoft Creative Director Michael de Plater said that the video game will be publicly beta-tested later this year (around November). Plater said,
We really believe that as soon as anyone can get their hands on the controls and experience it, it’ll be something new and it’s a level of immersion and realism and accessibility that’s never really been in a strategy game. We’re really focusing on getting our beta-test out for November.
Aside from this, the creative director also hinted that the World War III scenario for EndWar is a fertile ground for sequels. Currently, EndWar is scheduled to appear both on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 but no concrete release dates have been finalized yet.
About expanding the EndWar franchise, Plater had this to say, “As you can see from looking at World War II [games], World War III is something that can be big enough to be explored from loads of different directions, loads of different theatres, genres – we really see this as the beginning of that.”
