 | | Mercenaries is a revolutionary, 3rd person action-shooter game set in the near future and inspired
by real world events. On the eve of a historic reunification of North and South Korea, a ruthless
general stages a military coup to take control of North Korea and threatens the world with nuclear
war. The international community launches a global task force to stabilize the region. However, when
diplomatic efforts collapse and the region descends into anarchy they announce a one hundred million
dollar bounty on the North Korean general and his top military and scientific advisors. The targets
are identified in a “most wanted” list in the form of a 52-card deck of playing cards. As one of
the top operatives for a private mercenaries company called Executive Operations, you have been
called in to collect on these bounties.
Game Features
- Massive, open environments that are completely interactive. If you can see it, you can use it,
steal it, drive it, fly it, or blow it up.
- Explosive combat - you have the firepower (choose from a huge arsenal of realistic, military
weapons) to lay waste to anything in sight.
- Flexible gameplay - Use your weapons and your imagination to figure out how to complete missions
in a variety of ways in non-scripted environments.
- Dozens of different military and civilian vehicles, ranging from tanks, cars, trucks, helicopters,
and more that can be commandeered at anytime and used for any purpose.
- Some of the best graphics seen on the consoles - great weather and realistic explosion/destruction
effects.
- Based on the US military’s system of identifying a “most wanted” list of enemy targets in a playing
card deck, players will use the playing card metaphor to identify missions and enemy targets. Take on
missions from the different factions in order to gain intelligence and get new playing cards/targets
and access to new areas.
- Reputation system that is driven by an embedded journalist that records player actions, which
determines how civilians and the various warring factions respond to the player.
- Earn cash from different missions to buy better weapons and vehicles, or sell your vehicles and
weapons on the black market.
