Atomic Games has said that Six Days in Fallujah is "definitely not cancelled" and that the controversial Iraq War shooter remains "very important" to the studio.
Peter Tamte, the president of Breach maker Atomic, told Digital Spy that he hopes to finish Six Days in Fallujah, but it will "require time and persistence".
Announced in 2009, Six Days in Fallujah was to be the first game based on the 2003 invasion of Iraq, taking inspiration from the Second Battle of Fallujah, in which 1,500 insurgents and 38 US troops reportedly lost their lives.
However, the game attracted criticism from Iraq war veterans in the UK and campaign group Stop the War Coalition, who claimed that it was insensitive to the victims of the battle and came too soon after the real events.
"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?
B-b-bwhaaat?
I seriously doubt this will get any comments or views, but this is pretty good news!
Sure it will...you made a comment. and now there are 2. I have been following the development of this game for 3 years. It is good to know that is still in the works. Thanks to the people that are trying to bring this game out for hanging in there and not giving in to the people that didn't want this game to see the light of day!
Sad news
Hope it comes as a Sony exclusive like I saw somewhere.
You make this game w/sweet graphics & tight gameplay, an great gameplay mechanics. I will buy first day out.
