Partisan Announced
ND Games today sent out word that it is publishing Partisan, an action-based RPG set during the WWII. The game is in development at Paradigm and is set for release during the first quarter of 2008. Here’s the deal:
Our hero, a former Red Army captain, demoted during prewar repressions, finds himself on the frontline. Outnumbered and outgunned by the superior German forces, his battalion was destroyed and his few surviving friends were captured.
Fighting his way through occupied territory, our hero will liberate his comrades, reveal the mysteries of a secret weapon and foil the enemy’s plans.
The storyline brings the hero into contact with NPCs that will help him survive: weapons vendors, allies that will fight on his side and peaceful civilians who provide quests or supply information.
There will be various mission styles in the game, ranging from gung-ho action to stealth operations. The game will also feature various environments ranging from ruined cities to underground fortifications; it will also feature various WWII-themed period weapons ranging from well-known models to experimental prototypes.
