Description
On the war-torn planets of tomorrow, mankind’s greatest battle is about to begin. With its frontier colonies devastated by a growing insurrection, Earth dispatches its premier unit of powered-armor infantry to repel the coming onslaught. Known to their peers as Section 8, this elite unit spearheads the near-suicidal missions required to break enemy lines. Shielded by their advanced armor, these soldiers launch directly into the fray from orbital dropships.
Section 8™ is an intense first-person shooter that allows players to dynamically alter the flow of combat as they see fit. Employing strategic assets and on-demand vehicle deliveries, players are given unprecedented tactical control over epic sci-fi battlescapes. The war begins on specific next-gen consoles and the PC in 2009.
