Tuesday, 26th February, 2008 – 11am PST – Presenting explosive
action in a unique and provocative World War II scenario, Turning Point®: Fall
of Liberty™, the alternate reality shooter from Spark Unlimited™, is now
shipping to U.S. retail stores nationwide Codemasters® announced today; the
title’s UK launch will follow on March 14th .
Pitching gamers into a WWII like no other, Turning Point: Fall of Liberty is set
in an alternate 1953 where, following the fall of Europe, Nazi forces launch an
invasion on the gateway to the United States. Opening with decimating attack on
New York, players assume the role of construction worker Dan Carson caught in
the middle of the blitzkrieg.
As the city is taken block by block, players must survive the initial assault
before regrouping with a team of resistance workers and lead a fight back
against the oppressors. With the Third Reich’s sights set on the seat of
government, the action takes players to Washington D.C. and, eventually, to a
startlingly different London, which has been flying the Swastika under Nazi rule
for over a decade.
Prepare to fight afresh on these very different WWII battlegrounds when Turning
Point: Fall of Liberty arrives for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment
system from Microsoft®, the PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system and
Games for Windows®. See Carson in action and join the resistance online at
