America Occupied by Nazis!
Codemasters rewrites World War II history with Fall of Liberty.
UK, August 31, 2006 - Imagine an alternate reality where World War II wasn't won by Allied forces on the beaches of Normandy, but instead the Nazis overthrew Europe and, within a decade, had invaded and conquered America. That's the premise behind Fall of Liberty, a first-person shooter that promises to turn the WWII genre on its head.
Developed by Spark Unlimited, the team behind Call of Duty: Finest Hour, Fall of Liberty will be released on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC and casts the player as a resistance fighter battling not for the liberation of Europe, but for their nation's freedom in enemy-occupied America.
In the game's alternate reality, Winston Churchill is hit by a taxi on 5th Avenue in New York, but rather than surviving as his did 65 years ago, he was killed. Without his battle cry to inspire the Allied troops, the Nazis emerged victorious and - on December 7, 1951 - launched an all-out attack on the United States. The rest as they say is history. Well, sort of.
Although the game is still at an early stage in its development, with only a teaser screenshot of German troops marching through Washington in circulation, Codemasters promises an "intense and cinematic" experience with real-world locations to fight through, including a White House draped in Swastikas and a Manhattan Island that's under threat from nuclear attack. It's a totally fresh approach and with Spark's pedigree of creating believable, compelling gaming experiences, Fall of Liberty could give the historical FPS genre the shake up it needs when released at the end of next year.
