Screens & Info Updated: 5/17/2006 The folks at Bethesda have put together a great concept for their new Star Trek games, and during the E3, I had the chance to spend some time with them.
Star Trek Tactical Assault is coming for both the PSP and the Nintendo DS. This game is supposed to feel more like a sim combined with tactical game. The controls are pretty basic, so the game is very easy to pick up and play. You have one button that fires phasers and one that fires torpedos, and your ships have six different shields that protect you from six different angles. The game is all about finding the right way of approaching your enemy and taking him out, or do you take the diplomatic approach and change the game entirely? Either way the game promises to be a very good representation of the Star Trek universe. Check back in the future for more details on the game. Star Trek: Tactical Assault, in development for handheld gaming systems, features real-time spaceship combat from the universe of the original Star Trek series. With a wide array of authentic Star Trek races, ships, and weaponry, you can engage in single-player battle through either the Federation or Klingon campaigns or in head-to-head wireless multiplayer combat. Star Trek: Tactical Assault is being developed in the studios of Quicksilver Software, creators of the highly popular Star Trek: Starfleet Command. Both the Federation and Klingon campaign modes feature real-time combat with branching missions and multiple outcomes. With a multitude of paths to choose from, you will decide the ultimate outcome of your campaign. Wireless multiplayer mode allows you to test your skills and tactical maneuvers against those of your friends. Successful gameplay relies on strategic movement and effective use of a ship’s weapons and shields. Star Trek: Tactical Assault is slated for release on Nintendo DS and PSP this September.
