Ubisoft announce the endorsement of the largest combat veterans’ organisation in the world for its forthcoming shooter…
Ubisoft today announced that it has secured endorsement from the Veterans of Foreign Wars Foundation (VFW) for the forthcoming Brothers in Arms, currently in development at Gearbox Software. The VFW Foundation â“ the largest combat veteransâ organisation in the world - was set up to ensure the legacy of combat veterans is protected and nurtured; and provides support to American troops, veterans and their families.
Brothers in Arms will immerse players in the historic invasion of Normandy during WWII, depicting the true story of a perilous eight day journey through realistic battlegrounds, meticulously recreated from aerial reconnaissance images, US Army Signal Corps photos and eye-witness accounts. The endorsement of the VFW demonstrates the high degree of authenticity and the proper treatment of the subject matter that Gearbox invested in the development of the game.
Intriguingly todayâs Press Release confirms that the game is in development for the PC and Xbox, but makes no reference to the Playstation2 version that was confirmed during the games announcement back in April.
"The VFW Foundation believes that Brothers in Arms will help us reach our goal of increasing awareness about the sacrifices of veterans," said VFW Foundation President, John Senk. "Video games are the new medium for storytelling and Brothers in Arms accurately depicts the contributions made by veterans during World War II."
"In Brothers in Arms, Gearbox Software is telling an interactive story about the brotherhood between soldiers during one the most important battles of the modern world," said Colonel (U.S. Army retired) John Antal, Gearbox chief of staff and military & historical director. "Brothers in Arms places you in the center of D-Day to experience the self-sacrifice and unprecedented bravery of the troops who fought to win the freedoms that we enjoy today."
Weâll have more information and an interview with the team soon.
