Project Strike Team Revealed
European gaming publication Develop reports that Codemasters Guildford is working on an original “character-driven action title” dubbed Project Strike Team.
Apparently, the game is still in its early stages and so the studio is still working out on how to transfer its concepts into gameplay. The title will use an advanced version of the company’s NEON technology, which was recently used to power DiRT.
Though no platforms were specifically mentioned, one can look forward to the game only on the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360.
