The gaming industry sometimes writes hard-to-believe stories. One of these is beginning to be born with the re-announcement of a previously canceled game Six Days in Fallujah.
At first glance, Six Days in Fallujah was an extremely interesting war actions from a third party perspectivewhich was to be processed the second battle of Fallujah (Operation Phantom Fury), which was part of the war in Iraq.
Authors from the studio Atomic Games during the development, they cooperated with the soldiers who took part in the fighting itself and, according to their words, did their best to faithfully and historically accurate processing of the battle and the war itself. The publisher of the game was Konami, so even from a financial point of view, everything seemed to be secured.
After the announcement of the game in 2009 however, a wave of criticism came from the media, some war veterans, and anti-war movements such as Stop the War Coalition. It should be added that the battle itself took place in the year 2004, so it went well in the year 2009 about a relatively fresh and thorny topic.
Despite the efforts of the developers, who explained in various interviews that they certainly do not plan to celebrate or defend the war itself in any way, Konami decided to develop the game no longer finance. For a while, the developers at Atomic Games continued to develop on their own, but after a futile effort to find a new publisher, they had to game development cancel and the studio itself close.
However, we no longer have to talk about the game in the past, because despite the above-mentioned adversity of fate will see reincarnation. The game is developed by the studio Highwire Games, which in the past released the VR game Golem. It is a relatively newly formed studio consisting of a number of experienced developers.
For example, a game designer is worth attention Jaime Griesemer, who as a game designer participated in the development of Halo, Destiny or Infamous Second Son. Another well-known name is Marty O’Donnellwho composed the music for the first Destiny and several episodes of Halo. However, some of the developers of the canceled version are also taking part in the new Six Days in Fallujah.
Unlike the original game, it will be about action from a first person perspective. However, other ingredients should be preserved. The developers work with more than a hundred soldiers and civilians who experienced the battle firsthand.
Just documentary spaces a statements of real persons They should be an integral part of the experience, which just proves that they would also be new Six Days in Fallujah should emphasize historical accuracy and authentic workmanship. Each mission is to be told by a real participant in the battle, while you follow exactly in his footsteps and copy his destiny. In addition to soldiers, we will also play for civilians.
Six Days in Fallujah will be released later this year on PC and console. You are looking forward?
