Un add-on pour Painkiller

DreamCatcher Games vient d'annoncer la sortie pour cet hiver de Battle out of Hell, un add-on destiné à son très sympathique Painkiller.

Cette extension proposera un nouveau chapitre contenant 10 niveaux, de nouveaux modes multiplayer et des ennemis et maps tout neufs. Les bricoleurs de maps seront également contents d'apprendre qu'un SDK sera présent.

La version Xbox du jeu est quant à elle prévue pour début 2005.

Toronto, June 23, 2004 - DreamCatcher Games today announced that it will publish the Painkiller Expansion Pack: Battle out of Hell for its award-winning Windows® FPS. Releasing well in time for the holidays, the Expansion Pack will offer multiple features to extend enjoyment of this spectacular shooter.

Picking up right where the game's story left off, Battle out of Hell includes an additional single-player chapter with 10 levels, as well as new multiplayer modes, maps and models. It will also offer an amplified arsenal of un-deadly weapons, bigger and badder bosses and the map editor Software Development Kit.

A shooter in its purest form, Painkiller boasts truly stunning graphics and some of the most intimidating level bosses ever seen. The game utilizes the impressive Havok 2.0 physics engine, achieving new heights of physics-based gameplay, while the proprietary 3D "PAIN engine” is capable of pumping an unbelievably high polygon count while adding increased texture quality and the latest lighting and shadowing techniques.

Developed by People Can Fly, Painkiller is rated ‘M' for Mature. Download the demo at www.PainkillerGame.com. An Xbox® version of this title is planned for early 2005.
