This press release
announces plans for
Universal Combat: Hold the Line (thanks
Frans), a Universal Combat expansion, while
simultaneously, somewhat confusingly, heralding the end of the short-lived UC
series (which was planned as the new Battlecruiser franchise), saying the
previously announced UC: Edge to Edge is now a working title, and that the
game's official title will be unveiled later this year. Meanwhile, here's the
announcement of Hold the Line, planned for release this holiday season:
We have no immediate plans to develop another stand alone Battlecruiser
title in the short term. As such, today we are announcing the above currently in
progress addition to the Universal Combat franchise. Our aim with UCHTL is to
improve on various critical aspects of the previous title in order to provide an
even more advanced and fun title based on lessons learned from the previous
offering.
Probably the last of its kind in the Battlecruiser series as we have come to
know it, we are making UCHTL the all-encompassing game with as much advancements
and fun filled gameplay in first person planet-side careers as is currently seen
in the space borne careers. An extensive FAQ which will be frequently updated to
reflect inbound questions, is located at
