Features
Tactical action: Developed from the ground up exclusively for next-generation platforms, the breakthrough proprietary engine re-invents the tactical action experience and delivers the most chaotic and challenging battles to date.

Challenging objectives: Innovative and unpredictable tactical action objectives blend seamlessly with fast and intuitive melee combat. Storm battlefield strongholds by destroying massive gates, go on missions to destroy enemy weapons, and defend allied military units from assault.
Dynamic A.I.: Enemy unit A.I. adapts to player combat tactics, and can track players with tigers on land and patrol boats on water.
