Real-Time Strategy Game Set in the Original STAR TREK Series Universe
Bethesda Softworks today announced that STAR TREK: Tactical Assault
for the Nintendo DS is now shipping to North American retail stores.
STAR TREK: Tactical Assault for the PSP system
will follow closely behind, beginning to appear on store shelves the
week of November 13th. Both versions feature exciting, real-time
spaceship combat set in the universe of the original STAR TREK series.
STAR
TREK: Tactical Assault features two full-length campaigns for the
Federation and the Klingon Empire. You take command of a powerful
warship and must make split-second decisions under fire, outmaneuver
enemy warships, and make calculated assessments about your enemy's
weaknesses while protecting your own. With a multitude of paths to
choose from in each campaign, you will ultimately decide the direction
and outcome of your story.
In addition to the story driven
single-player campaigns, STAR TREK: Tactical Assault features
high-energy, action-packed one-off battles found in the “Skirmish' and
“Wireless Multiplayer' modes. The “Skirmish' mode allows players to
test their abilities against the A.I. while the wireless multiplayer
action allows them to go head-to-head against a friend. In these
special modes players can command ships from the Federation, Klingon,
Romulan, Gorn, and Orion fleets.
Developed by Quicksilver
Software under the direction of Bethesda Softworks, STAR TREK: Tactical
Assault is rated E for Everyone. For more information visit http://startrek.bethsoft.com.
STAR
TREK: Tactical Assault is the second title to be released in Bethesda's
STAR TREK lineup following the launch of the highly popular STAR
TREK: Encounters for the PS2 computer entertainment system
in September. STAR TREK: Legacy is scheduled for a North American
release in November for the Xbox 360 videogame and entertainment
system from Microsoft and Windows.
