Activision has announced that "Call of Duty 2" has been shipped to retail stores.
"Powered by Infinity Ward's proprietary new engine, the sequel delivers
an unparalleled portrayal of the chaos and intensity of war with
life-like authenticity, amazing special effects, advanced A.I.
technology, the most realistic squad combat and explosive action."
"Set across three Allied campaigns: Russian, British and American,
Call of Duty 2 offers the ultimate character-driven experience, as
gamers can play through each storyline to its completion, or choose to
engage the enemy in historic battles chronologically from 1941 through
1945. Players have the freedom to take on mission objectives in any
order as they see fit, yet must utilize actual combat tactics like
outflanking and fire and maneuver to succeed.
Call of Duty 2
delivers more explosive action with bigger battles, more weapons, more
troops and unprecedented special effects set in a wide range of
locations and environments. Players, for example, can fight "The Desert
Fox" across the sands of North Africa as waves of tanks clash in the
desert; join an Army Ranger squad using rocket-propelled grappling
hooks to storm the cliffs of Pointe du Hoc; or slog through the urban
chaos of Stalingrad and Moscow in blizzard conditions as a tank hunter
in war-torn Russia.
For intense multiplayer action, Call of
Duty 2 players can go online for Axis vs. Allies team-based gameplay
featuring five modes of play: Headquarters, Capture the Flag, Search
and Destroy, Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch for up to 32 players."
