Shellshock 2 Coming For Christmas News

It may have originally been confirmed back in 2004, however it seems the restructuring delay on Eidos' key titles has allowed Shellshock 2 to slip through with confirmation that the game will be arriving on the Xbox 360, PlayStation3, and PC in time for Christmas.

Promising a return to the war-torn jungles of Vietnam, Shellshock 2: Blood Trails follows a squad of Special-Ops as they attempt to retrieve a top-secret consignment known only as 'Whiteknight' that was lost when its covert-ops cargo plane crashed over the deepest, uncharted jungle.

One-by-one they disappear in the jungle, until a month later, one of them suddenly reappears. Crazed and deranged, something in the jungle has ripped out his humanity and poisoned his soul - not your typical war videogame plot then!

"Shellshock 2 is very different to any first person shooter you've seen before; at times it feels more like you're in a horror movie than a game," said Lee Singleton, General Manager of Eidos Game Studios. "Survival takes on a new meaning as you fight against all sides of the conflict: your enemy, your allies and the victims... the casualties of Whiteknight, an enemy that ultimately has no side."
