Tactical Naval Warfare, Combined with First-Person, Boots-on-the-Ground Gameplay, Lands this Spring.
BATTLESHIP follows elite demolitions specialist Cole Mathis as he clashes against an aquatic-based extraterrestrial peril in the sand and sea of the beautiful Hawaiian archipelago. Trapped in a veritable communications dead zone, Mathis must command the U.S. Navy fleet in a “siege on the sea,” while simultaneously rallying the troops on land for a terrifying “war on the shore.”
Combining naval strategy simulation with first-person shooter gameplay, players fend off the enemy beachside while ordering attacks against their marine counterparts. Seamlessly switching between battlefield and overview “Battle Command” map, the Hasbro game is brought to life as carriers, frigates, cruisers, destroyers, submarines and the legendary USS Missouri Battleship pummel the enemy in a race to strategic points that turn the tide of battle. The BATTLESHIP video game is a next-gen marvel perfectly suited to turn nostalgic game junkies into battle-hardened admirals.
The BATTLESHIP video game, developed by Double Helix for the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3, arrives in Europe this April and North America this May. In addition, there will be uniquely designed versions for the Wii, Nintendo 3DS, and Nintendo DS developed by Magic Pockets, with more details to come at a later date.
