The title will be developed in partnership with Bohemia Interactive. The game is set to launch this fall 2012. In a prepared statement sent to the press Rising Star Games talks about the upcoming launch:
Carrier Command: Gaea Mission brings a modern update to the classic 1980′s Carrier Command. A strategy-based game, Carrier Command: Gaea Mission offers a unique combination of first- and third-person action. The game features a deep story set in a massive environment with more than 30 unique islands hosting six distinct climate zones. Alongside their ragtag crew, players will mount a powerful campaign to control a network of island bases set within the universe. Commanders must manage multiple vehicles in real-time while acquiring and manufacturing upgrades, weapons and enhancements to guarantee victory on the battlefield.
“Joining forces with Bohemia Interactive is another step in the right direction for our company,” said Phil Robinson, VP of Rising Star Games, Inc. “We are committed to enhancing our U.S. portfolio with top-quality titles and Carrier Command: Gaea Mission is a perfect example of that promise.”
“The original Carrier Command was an inspiration for me joining the video game industry, and it’s an honor to be creating the re-imagined version of the title 25 years later,” said Marek Spanel, CEO and founder of Bohemia Interactive. “We have a passionate team that is dedicated to making a game that continues the Carrier Command legacy and we are thrilled to be working with Rising Star Games to bring this title to the US.”
Carrier Command: Gaea Mission will be available this fall for Xbox 360 for $59.99 and Windows PC for $49.99.
