British Game To End All Wars

July 4th, 2007

Ghostlight wishes To End All Wars with their next-generation FPS. The game is in development at UK developer Kuju through its newly appointed Chemistry studio for the PS3 and Xbox 360. It is powered by Unreal Engine 3 and is set for release during Summer 2008.

Unlike most other War games, this one will be set in World War I Europe, hoping to deliver “unrivaled atmosphere and realism, bringing the mud strewn horror of this most desperate of conflicts.”

Stephen Morgan, Head of Development at Ghostlight says, “By producing a title set in World War I, we are taking gaming into a new period of wartime history. Our research revealed huge global changes in both real-world technology and tactical deployment of battle units during the intense four year conflict. This has given us scope to present gamers with a multitude of evolving challenges within an ever changing environment.”

The developer hopes on getting the authenticity of the conflict, as it is billed as the “heart of the project.” They hope to recreate period locations in “lavish” detail, with character designs and weapons to reflect those of the era.

No other information was released. Hopefully, details and media will be released at next week’s E3.
