Introduction: TODAY, AN OUTCAST... TOMORROW, A HERO. In early 2003, the Unreal adventure continued with the highly anticipated release of the action shooter Unreal II: The Awakening. Now, that PC hit is recharged and reloaded as a gripping Xbox Live release, packed with brand new explosive excitement for solo, team and multiplayer combat. All of the suspense, adrenaline-pumping destruction and awesome visuals from the original are there, along with a full lineup of unique multiplayer options that serious shooter fans won't want to miss. Player-controlled vehicles add to the carnage, acting as both transport and heavy weaponry--launch into battle and mow down the opposition. Along the outer edge of space, players are plunged into a desperate mission to kill all comers--alien and otherwise--and prevent the awakening of an evil force. With a mind-boggling array of firepower, hardened warriors must protect the last gasp of humanity through scorching heat, over icy terrain, and within eerie alien cities. |
Features: Full Xbox Live support, with multiplayer modes that include head-to-head action and class-based team play. A crushing arsenal of weapons - and the introduction of blazing fast armored vehicles. A variety of mission objectives (assault, infiltration, defense), providing for a diverse gameplay experience. Famed Unreal Engine technology, resulting in enormously detailed graphics, ranging from fire and smoke, and hair and clothing, to enormous alien worlds with breath-taking vistas, and claustrophobic underground tunnels. Relentless enemies - Soldiers, aliens, and the return of the feared Skaarj, from the original Unreal. A wide range of battlegrounds, from lush jungles to arid deserts. A riveting, foreboding plotline taking players from mission to mission. |
