NAMCO BANDAI Games America announced
Warhammer: Battle March for the Xbox 360 and Warhammer: Mark of Chaos
- Battle March for the PC. Debuting the series' tactical real-time
action on the Xbox 360 and delivering all-new content to 2006's
critically acclaimed Warhammer: Mark of Chaos for the PC, Battle March
brings the brutality, strategy and drama of warfare to life with six
unique playable armies, fully customizable units and intense online
clashes.
On the Xbox 360, Warhammer: Battle March includes the original content
from Warhammer: Mark of Chaos as well as all-new features, intuitive
control schemes and support for online play via the Xbox LIVE. Thrusting players into Games Workshop's
fantasy world, players will be able to control six unique armies - the
Empire, Chaos, Skaven, High Elves as well as the all-new Dark Elf and
Orcs & Goblins forces - as they battle for supremacy in a world torn
apart by constant warfare. The individual units of each army can be
customized in great detail, allowing players to put their own mark on
their fighting force and strike fear into their opponents with
terrifying combinations of weaponry and armor. Players can also control
Heroes and Champions for each army, high-powered units that gain new
abilities as they tear through the opposition. Placing the focus of
gameplay on combat and tactics rather than tedious resource management,
Warhammer: Battle March on the Xbox 360 features two control schemes for
both master battlefield tacticians and novice warriors that offer full
control over all aspects of the player's army. On Xbox LIVE, up to four
players can engage in massive multi-army clashes in head-to-head and
team-based modes of play.
An expansion to Warhammer: Mark of Chaos for the PC, Warhammer: Mark of
Chaos - Battle March builds upon the game's tactical foundation to offer
new units for each army as well as an original campaign and new online
modes. Players will be able to experience the mysterious sorcery of the
Dark Elves and the savage brutality of the Orcs and Goblins in an
all-new chapter of the game's single player campaign as they battle to
overcome an invasion by the armies of Chaos.
Warhammer: Battle March for the Xbox 360 and Warhammer: Mark of Chaos -
Battle March for the PC are scheduled for release in 2008.
