LONDON, UK (January 23rd 2006) - GMX are today announcing the release of a revolutionary flight simulation title for PC CD- ROM - Pacific Storm. Scheduled for release in March 2006, Pacific Storm is a ground breaking fusion of a real time strategy gaming with all the best elements of a flight simulation title.

On December 7th 1941, the U.S. Pacific Navy stationed at Pearl Harbor came under attack from Japanese fighter planes. The enemy fighters were destroying the American aircraft on land and in the air with deadly force. The battle of Pearl Harbor became the first of many to be fought over hostile waters. Now you can participate in all the major Pacific battles of the World War II in Pacific Storm - a game that seamlessly incorporates RTS into a major flight simulation title. Fight on either side, controlling US or Japanese forces and change the outcome of each historical battle!

"Pacific Storm recreates one of the most epic airborne military confrontations down to the finest detail", quotes Eugene Perry, COO for GMX Media "Players are given absolute freedom to control nearly every available military unit involved in the engagement. This is no ordinary flight sim title - Pacific Storm will redefine games based upon historical military warfare."

Key Features:

  • Detailed 3D models of vehicles - including battleships, aircraft-carriers, destroyers, cruisers and rocket cruisers, submarines, torpedo boats, tankers, cargo ships and transports, fighters, attack planes, torpedo-bombers, strategic bombers, reconnaissance planes, land cannons and antiaircraft guns - all designed according to drafts from historical archives.

  • A wide system of upgrades include the option of producing nuclear or biological weapons.

  • Total freedom of strategic and tactical decisions.

  • First-person view available (while taking control of a planes or a submarines)

  • Units gain experience and can be transferred between battles.

  • Realistic 3D landscapes and weather conditions - mist, storms & rain.

  • Multiplayer via LAN supports tactical map battles and multiplayer simulation combat.
