TalonSoft, a subsidiary of Take-Two Interactive, sent us a group of screenshots from its upcoming real-time World War II strategy game GI Combat. The game will feature dozens of historical and hypothetical missions beginning at D-Day and continuing through Patton's breakout from the Normandy beachhead. Players assume control of either American or German troops and lead them through a variety of tactical encounters. The game features a 3D environment with detailed terrain and realistic armor penetration, vehicle movement, and weapons fire. In addition, a multiplayer mode will support up to 32 players over a LAN or Internet connection.
GI Combat is scheduled for release near the end of this year.
