EA Confirms Syndicate Reboot


News broke out last week that Starbreeze is working on a first person shooter Syndicate game with some rather pretty screenshots available on the world wide web. EA has confirmed that what you heard, was right, and Starbreeze is indeed working on a first person Syndicate. Syndicate for the uninitiated is a classic real time tactics game by Peter Molyneux when he was with Bullfrog. EA now owns the license and hence here comes Starbreeze with a first person take on a tactics game. At first we had the XCOM reboot and now this. EA Partners Jeff Gamon said "Our goal with Syndicate is to provide a challenging action shooter for today’s gamers as well as fans of the original. I’m sure they will enjoy and recognize the legacy that made it such a classic". The game will feature a separate 4 player coop mode which might be awesome, and the ability to slow down time(yay). The game is due early 2012. I'll keep an eye out if there's any media(other than the leaked screenshots) released for the game.
