Square Enix Eidos announces plans to release a single-player
demo a week from tomorrow for
Battlestations: Pacific, the World War II
action/strategy sequel. The demo will be released on April 30 on both the Games
For Windows LIVE and Xbox LIVE marketplaces, and here's the outline of what it
will offer: "Players will experience one war through two epic sagas, enabling
gamers to be a part of history or to dramatically alter it. The full game
features an historically accurate US campaign alongside an historically possible
Japanese campaign, spanning a total of 28 missions, five new multiplayer modes
that can be played with up to eight players and over 100 air, sea and undersea
units." The full game is currently expected for Windows and Xbox 360 on May 12
in North America and May 15 in Europe. There's
a
preview of the demo on GameSpot.
