Pow! Bam! Crash! Villains beware! A team of unlikely heroes known only as Freedom Force has arrived to protect the citizens of Patriot City from the evil Lord Dominion. Heroic force will be called upon as EA and Crave Entertainment on Tuesday announced they have begun to ship the comic-inspired tactical role-playing game Freedom Force for the PC.
Flashing back to the Silver Age of comic books, players can form, train and lead Freedom Force, a team of 14 original comic heroes sent to Patriot City, to foil Lord Dominion's scheme of having the planet Earth destroy itself. The game consists of 22 unique missions, the majority of which will require a squad of four heroes such as the patriotic leader Minuteman, the powerful ManBot and the fiery El Diablo.
A fully featured RPG skill system rewards strategic heroes by allowing players to juggle stats, pump up powers, recruit new heroes and strengthen existing heroes based on experience accumulated in tactical missions. The game's enhanced mod element allows players to completely customize and create their own unique heroes and personal skins.
Freedom Force is equipped with up to four-player online and LAN multiplayer support, including support for the GameSpy Arcade player matchmaking service. Freedom Force for the PC was developed by Irrational Games, creators of System Shock; it carries a T rating from the ESRB and a suggested retail price of $39.99.
