AUSTRALIA — June 4, 2009 — Ubisoft® has announced that R.U.S.E., the brand new real-time strategy game developed by Eugen Systems will be demonstrated at the Ubisoft booth during E3, using ‘Intuiface’, the new and innovative surface computing platform designed by IntuiLab. Thanks to an unprecedented collaboration between Ubisoft, Eugen Systems & IntuiLab, R.U.S.E. can now be experienced on large multi-touch tables, allowing users to get one step closer toward a fluid and natural interface with a strategy game, providing the feeling of being a true commander of war.
“Our goal is to provide an innovative gaming experience that enables players to become a strategist and lead armies in a true to life universe,” stated John Parkes, EMEA marketing director at Ubisoft. “With the IntuiLab technology, R.U.S.E liberates the player from having to master controls, empowering them to immerse themselves into the game and focus on using their brain to outwit the enemy.”
“Ubisoft’s constant drive to create new and exciting game experiences, matched with the natural user interface developed by IntuiLab gave us the perfect opportunity to develop a new and innovative partnership,” said Vincent Encontre, Intuilab CEO. “The gigantic maps of R.U.S.E and fluid use of zoom to interact with the game combined with the abilities of surface computing is bringing a totally new experience to players.”
