Underwater Wars announced for Xbox 360 and PC (2 Screens)

Biart Studio has unveiled Underwater Wars, a squad-based shooter for Xbox 360 and PC scheduled for release in 2009. The conflict sets in 2012 between two factions: the United States, NATO, and Japan versus China, North Korea, and indirectly Syria and Iran. You and your teammates are in an elite division of sea infantry of the US Navy.

Underwater Wars will feature 12 missions, three types of gameplay (underwater bases, underwater operations, and ground/islands/town missions,) two view modes, multiplayer modes, underwater vehicles (submarines, hydro accelerate system, etc,) and more.

[Notes: Biart Studio has previously developed Check Dive, a full-scale 3D engine that simulates underwater environments and physics.]

it should be released on 2012, by then it might be a hit and it would give them time to restart development, cause right now looks like space vomit.

NowGamer: U-Wars Preview

A few issues back games took a look at Hydrophobia, the upcoming water-based action-adventure from newly formed studio Dark Energy Digital. Its focus is on allowing water to run free within the game's environments, utilising it as an element that can be advantageous to the player as a tool in their arsenal, or a destructive force that can easily overcome those that don't mind its power.

U-Wars – a contraction that stands for the rather unimaginative Underwater Wars – is similarly making water its focal feature. However, while Dark Energy Digital has looked for new ways to make water a challenging game design element and complex puzzle-solving tool, Russian Studio Biart has done little other than use it as a flimsy excuse for originality.
