THQ Announces Frontlines: Fuel of War On PC, PS3 And Xbox 360

Yet another editorial revelation (from the GameInformer magazine) freshly strengthened by an official press release is that of the modern military action game Frontlines: Fuel of War, which was just announced by THQ for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360, carrying a tentative release date set in the Fall of 2007. This is the first project from their internal development team Kaos Studios - founded by veterans of Trauma Studios, creators of Desert Combat and designer of key technologies for Battlefield 2. Therefore it's no surprise that Frontlines: Fuel of War is already being compared to the likes of Battlefield 2: Modern Combat and Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter (now Gold on PC), as it promises a military arsenal consisting of over 60 advanced weapons and vehicles: next-generation assault tanks, RC drones, jets, helicopters, personnel carriers, off road trucks, the whole set. THQ's description of the game goes a little bit like this:

"Frontlines: Fuel of War is an open world, infantry- and vehicle-based FPS (First Person Shooter) featuring advanced next-gen weaponry in a desperate, near future setting where controlling the planet's depleting fossil resources determines the ultimate fate of civilization. A global war for oil is being waged between two superpowers, the Western Coalition (US/EU) and the Red Star Alliance (Russia/China), and players will be instrumental in determining how the war is waged - and won. The single player campaign will focus on this powerful storyline as players' execute missions focused on non-linear gameplay, moving their frontline through enemy held territory."
