Hop into the cockpit of a high-flying,
fully loaded aerial hotrod in "Crimson Skies™: High Road to Revenge," the newest
game under exclusive development for the Xbox™ video game system.
Microsoft® Game Studios today announced that its critically acclaimed action-adventure
franchise, "Crimson Skies," is coming exclusively to Xbox this fall. "Crimson Skies:
High Road to Revenge" combines the thrills of low-to-the-ground air combat with
the swashbuckling style of an action-adventure movie. Players pilot powerful fantasy
aircraft in a game reminiscent of a classic Hollywood tale, as they battle enemy
aces and navigate tricky stunts in single- and multiplayer modes. As the handsome
and daring air pirate Nathan Zachary, players barnstorm through 1930s America hunting
down the murderers of Nathan's best friend.
"Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge" includes the following key features:
- Environments
that serve as weapons. Use the natural environment and man-made structures to
great advantage. Trigger landslides, collapse water towers and bridges, or fly
through "danger zones" to destroy or avoid fast-approaching enemies.
- Fully
loaded aerial hotrods. Pilot one of 10 warplanes armed to the teeth with napalm
missiles, magnetic grapples and sandstorm cannons. Swoop and dive to elude bogeys
just itching to take down the good guys.
- Multiplayer
madness. Dogfight enemy aircraft in four-person splitscreen multiplayer mode.
Fly solo or with a squadron against human and artificial intelligence opponents.
- Secrets
in the skies. Swoop high and low in a search for stunt zones, which uncover bonus
weapons and more.
- Flight
school not required. Command the air with ease in the true spirit of combat flying.
Focus on the art of dogfighting, not the science of flying.
