Vivendi Universal Games announced today at this years Electronic Entertainment Expo, the development of F.E.A.R - a new PC title that they describe as an intense first person close-quarters combat experience, with a rich atmosphere and an engaging storyline. Developed by Monolith, who were responsible for titles like Aliens vs. Predator, the No One Lives Forever franchise and Tron 2.0. In F.E.A.R. the story begins as an unidentified paramilitary force infiltrates a multi-billion dollar aerospace compound. The government responds by sending in Special Forces, but loses contact as an eerie signal interrupts radio communications. When the interference subsides moments later, the team has been literally torn apart. As part of a classified strike team created to deal with threats no one else can handle, your mission is simple: Eliminate the intruders at any cost. Determine the origin of the signal. And contain this crisis before it spirals out of control.
"We are excited about partnering with Monolith once again and especially the creative team directly involved on this project," said Michael Pole, of Vivendi Universal. "Without giving away too much, F.E.A.R. might be described as The Matrix meets The Ring and the team has set a goal to immerse the player in an intense blockbuster action movie experience - they are well on their way to delivering just that."
F.E.A.R. will be released for the PC in 2005 with an expected ESRB 'Mature' rating.
