Eidos Set Shellshock: Nam'67 Release + New Trailer News

Having previously suffered from the financial issues of a missed release, Eidos today confirmed a new release date for Guerrilla Games Shellshock: Namâ??67.

Originally scheduled for release on the Xbox, Playstation2 and PC in the summer, Eidos have today confirmed that the title will be released across Europe on September 3rd, followed by a North American release on September 14th.

Shellshock: Namâ??67 is likely to upset readers of the Dail Mail with its brutal and gritty replication of the Vietnam War, with players taking on a rookie soldier on his first tour of duty. From napalm bombardments and Vietcong booby traps, to the permanent threat of invisible foes and deadly ambushes, Shellshock: Namâ??67 is set to depict the true portrayal of war for the first time.

Jonathan Kemp, European managing director of Eidos says: â??ShellShock: Nam â??67 is an important release for Eidos, especially as it is the first game of what will hopefully prove to be a very successful franchise. We are giving the game significant marketing support across all media, and in conjunction with the very positive press coverage already received, we are confident that ShellShock: Nam â??67 will perform strongly at retail.â?

Weâ??ll have more information soon.
