Atomic Games President Peter Tamte confirmed to Bitmob that they are still working on and planning on bringing out Six Days in Fallujah, a military shooter based on a real battle in Iraq.
Konami was originally supposed to publish the title but dropped it amidst all the surrounding controversy that came up due to the subject matter. Since then, the game was thought to be canceled, but Tamte verified to Bitmob that they're still pushing forward with it.
"The Seattle-based (Washington , the US) indie games publisher Victura and indie games developer Highwire Games, are today very happy and excited to announce that they have just released three new missions for their first-person tactical shooter "Six Days in Fallujah", nearly doubling the content in the game (the new missions is available right now for PC via Steam Early Access)." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Six Days In Fallujah is a controversial military sim which just hit Early Access. Jump Dash Roll dives into the battlefield to give its first impressions on a possible rival to Call of Duty.
14 years after its original controversy-filled announcement, Six Days in Fallujah has made its way into Early Access. How does this milsim game fare?
Kind of interesting that a guy who was actually in the battle came to them with the idea for the game.
I'm definately keeping an eye on this game. Just like with the ww2 shooters that stuck to real events like D-day and the like. The games like the new Medal of Honor and Six Days will be a nice treat! None of this fake mw2 terrorism but factual events since we are currently living it.
I want them to make this game, if only because I think developers should be able to make any game they choose. I hate censorship in all forms.
Yes good, glad to hear its still going. This will tell the story of whats happening in which i bet all soldiers would want, for people to know what they did there for their country. I would, but of course the devs need to make it right and portray it in the right sense.
I didn't know it was ever really off.... I blame my disconnect with shooters.
