Haarlem, The Netherlands – 24 October 2011 – Today, video publisher Iceberg Interactive announces that the “Plutonium Edition” of the new FPS and RTS shooter Nuclear Dawn for PC and Mac was released last Friday in retail stores in Germany, Switzerland and Austria. The “Plutonium Edition” also contains bonus materials over the download version: a soundtrack CD and a cool Art Book – and is fully localized in the German language. The English retail version was already released by Iceberg Interactive in the Benelux last week and will release in Scandinavia next week. The download version has been available since early October.
In Nuclear Dawn, you take the role of a soldier and explore war-torn post-apocalyptic landscapes, modelled on modern cities. Take the fight to your enemies as armoured, assault or stealth infantry, using various weapons across ten distinct load-outs to accomplish your objectives. The first person shooter action in Nuclear Dawn is hard, fast and unforgiving, with weapons that rely on skill and tactics more than on twitch reflexes and map memorization.
Then, take Nuclear Dawn above the action, and play as the commander. Organize your fellow players in squads, and assign them to tactical objectives. Plan the resource routes for your army, and production of your structures for forward deployment. Exploit the terrain and resource point locations to block your enemies’ advance, and crush their plans in an iron fist. Research and implement new technologies to give your soldiers the edge on the battlefield, and set up forward bases to lead the assault on your enemies, with a full complement of defensive and offensive structures to choose from, to build your perfect fortress.
