Codemasters and KDV games are announcing a new RTS game based on KDV's Vista Engine technology - Maelstrom.
Set in 2040, after a cataclysmic event has all-but wiped out humanity, leaving two factions of humanity to try and secure what's left. The Remnants, an ad-hoc band of resistance fighters led by former General James Buchanan are engaged in a Guerrilla campaign against the technocratic Ascension- who have at their fingertips fantastic technologies such as transforming units, and have used them ruthlessly to further the ideological aims of their leader, Arlan Khan. This fighting among the remains of humaity attracts the attention of Alien forces, who see a weakened planet right for the taking.
First info about the title, six exlusive screenshots and some artwork are available at the projects's page. And for those who would like to find out more about Maelstrom's features -the gaming site Computer And Video Games has published an interview with Carl Johnson, Senior Games Designer at Codemasters. Don't miss it and be prepared to get caught in the maelstrom of war!
