Codemasters
today released a fact sheet and new screenshots for Damnation:
"the shooter gone vertical." With vast, streaming
environments, Damnation’s levels are truly organic
3D spaces that cover miles of horizontal distance and
thousands of vertical feet.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
Changing
the landscape of shooters forever with a revolutionary
blend of movement and combat in all three dimensions,
Damnation is a non-stop test of reflexes, decision-making
and action. Taking the shooter vertical, Damnation features
massive streaming landscapes that set the stage for
post-industrial battles between humanity and an unstoppable
corporation in the wastelands known as Damnation. With
the freedom to go anywhere and kill anyone to reach
a goal, players create their own routes using vehicles,
acrobatics and climbing to get around the huge maps.
In
Damnation, players take control of Captain Hamilton
Rourke, a member of the guerrilla resistance force known
as the Peacekeepers. A veteran of the Great War, Rourke
has his own personal agenda in avenging the death of
his fiancé.

FEATURES:
Huge
Scale - With vast, streaming environments, Damnation’s

of horizontal distance and thousands of vertical feet.

landscapes that unfold in all three dimensions. Using

Player
Choice and Freedom - It could take up to three hours
in real-time travel to get from one end to the other

acrobatics and vehicles, players are able to get their
own routes, as they look at the massive map ahead, above
and below them.
“Spirit
Vision” - Players can activate the hero’s
“Spirit Vision” power to see through walls
and anticipate the enemy’s movements.
