This will be the first new Delta Force game since 2009.
Remember the Delta Force games? It's okay if you don't: It was a reasonably popular shooter series that debuted in the late 1990s, but the last addition to the lineup, Delta Force: Xtreme 2, came out back in 2009, and wasn't very good. The last we heard from it was in 2016, when THQ Nordicand all its games. Seven years later, Delta Force is finally making a comeback, with a brand-new game being developed by Tencent subsidiary TiMi Studio Group.
The new game will feature a singleplayer campaign based on the movie Black Hawk Down, producer Shadow Guo told, but it will also feature"large-scale multiplayer PvP," a central component of the original game. "Our game designers chose to build an immersive multiplayer battleground that could accommodate even larger-scale PVP than the previous 32-player limit," Guo said."To create a grand atmosphere of combat on ground, sea, and air, we designed a variety of methods for engagement and maps that integrate diverse terrain features such as vertical height differences and caves, as well as different vehicle routes.
"We also created unique, technologically advanced vehicles that players can use in the game, including assault vehicles, helicopters, armored vehicles, attack boats, terrain vehicles, jeeps, pickups, fighter jets, and drones. These vehicles add to the gameplay experience of large-scale PVP." It's not clear why a Tencent studio is handling this reboot, rather than a THQ Nordic outfit—there's no indication as to whether Tencent licensed the title, or quietly acquired it outright at some point—and I also wonder, with all due respect, why it's chosen to resurrect this particular military shooter.
