The war between the GDF and Strogg will soon be igniting on next-
generation consoles as id Software and Activision, Inc. today
confirmed that Enemy Territory: QUAKE Wars, the team-based first
person action title, and already one of the most anticipated new
properties of 2007 is coming to next-gen platforms. In this epic
multiplayer-focused game, players can choose to defend humanity as a
part of the Global Defense Force (GDF) or destroy it as a merciless
Strogg alien invader. Under the executive production of id Software,
Nerve Software is developing Enemy Territory: QUAKE Wars for the Xbox
360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, while Z-Axis
is the developer for the PLAYSTATION 3 computer entertainment system.

"We're pleased to be working with Nerve and Z-Axis to bring the highly-
anticipated gameplay from Enemy Territory: QUAKE Wars to the Xbox 360
and PLAYSTATION 3 system," said Todd Hollenshead, CEO, id Software.

Winner of more than 15 awards in 2006 and already selected as one of
the most anticipated new titles in 2007 by more than eight
publications, Enemy Territory: QUAKE Wars is being developed for the
Windows PC by Splash Damage - the Nerve Software and Z-Axis console
versions will also feature strategic team play, persistent character
promotions and online stats tracking. Players choose to battle as one
of five unique classes in either the conventionally armed GDF army or
the futuristic Strogg invasion force, each outfitted with specialist
weapons and combat hardware. In this adrenaline pumping fight for
survival, warring forces utilize a variety of different vehicles,
deployable structures, and defense systems including quad-bikes,
tanks, and alien walkers for epic ground assaults; or helicopters and
anti-gravity ships to unleash airborne attacks. Throughout each
battle, teams establish bases, deploy defense structures, artillery,
radar, and advanced forward-command systems into enemy territory while
constructing and demolishing obstacles to speed progress and gain a
tactical advantage over the opponent. Enemy Territory: QUAKE Wars
features 16-player battles on the console systems, delivering the
ultimate team-and objective-based multiplayer experience.
