Codemasters Finally Confirms Xbox Flashpoint Release News

By Jon Wilcox on 30/08/2005

After much speculation Codemasters confirms that the Xbox adaptation of the PC classic will be arriving this November...

The future of was once called ‘Operation: Flashpoint – Cold War Crisis’ and ‘Military Sim (Working Title)’ has been in question for the last few months thanks to a feud between developers Bohemia and publisher Codemasters. The saga seems to be at an end this morning with Codemasters announcing that Operation Flashpoint: Elite will be released on Xbox in November 2005.

Marek Spanel, Director of Bohemia Interactive Studio said, "This is not another run-and-gun shooter; Operation Flashpoint: Elite simulates modern warfare on a level never seen before on any console, providing a totally new playing experience. You'll need brain power as much as quick reflexes; act before you die, think before you act, and find cover before you think…We have adapted and improved the game for Xbox while keeping the sheer scope and complexity of the gameplay. The visuals have been recreated specifically for the format with map sizes and draw distances ultimately more impressive than anything seen on a console."

After years of hold-ups we can finally say this with certainty: Operation Flashpoint: Elite will be launching on Xbox this November with an RRP of £19.99; we’ll have more on the title shortly…
