Delta Force - Black Hawk Down hits the streets

 

DELTA FORCE - BLACK HAWK DOWN The intensity of Modern Warfare comes to the PC!

Calabasas, Ca (March 25th 2003) - Entertainment software developer and publisher NovaLogic, Inc. is pleased to announce that the eagerly awaited PC Game Delta Force - Black Hawk Down has shipped and will be in stores shortly.

Set in Somalia in 1993, Delta Force - Black Hawk Down is based upon and around the Operation Restore Hope and Task Force Ranger campaigns immortalized in the book and movie of the same name. The game follows members of the elite Delta Force, US Army Rangers and 10th Mountain Division as they participate in a number of daring raids against the oppressive Somali warlords in and around Mogadishu.

Delta Force - Black Hawk Down recreates the intense atmosphere of a war-torn country. From tours of duty in the vast Somali countryside, where snipers could lurk on top of any hill - to the maze like streets of Mogadishu, where militia and civilians blend seamlessly the task of discerning enemy from refugee is vital, as a wrong decision could cost you your mission.... or your life.

To ensure accuracy, NovaLogic spent months researching the history of the conflict, and worked extensively with former Special Forces Operatives, including two who served in Somalia in 1993.

NovaLogic has also teamed up with the Special Operations Warrior Foundation. A portion of the proceeds from Delta Force - Black Hawk Down will be donated to the foundation. The SOWF provides college scholarship grants, along with financial aid and educational counseling to the children of Special Operations personnel who were killed in an operational mission or training accident.

Delta Force - Black Hawk Down features include:

  • Insertion by MH-6 helicopter transports, Black Hawks and ground based vehicles.
  • An AI system that drives friendly teams and enemies to carry out strategic, lethal combat maneuvers.
  • An arsenal of authentic weapons as used by US Special Forces during Operation Restore Hope and Task Force Ranger.
  • Huge and varied landscapes that transport the player into the middle of a chaotic war zone.
