Spec Ops: The Line will be released June 29 for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC, 2K Games has announced.
Developed by YAGER, Spec Ops: The Line is set in Dubai. Once home to the world’s elite, Dubai has fallen victim to a series of cataclysmic sandstorms. Playing as Captain Martin Walker, gamers will fight through Dubai to search for Colonel John Konrad and his missing battalion, The Damned 33rd.
“Spec Ops: The Line is 2K Games’ first foray into the military shooter genre,” said Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K. “We’ve created a unique game that explores the dark realities of war and places players in difficult situations where the line between right and wrong becomes increasingly blurred as players fight to survive.”
Spec Ops: The Line also promises a class-based multiplayer experience, with squad-based games that take place in the sandstorm ravaged Dubai. Players who pre-order the game from participating retailers will receive the FUBAR pack, containing the following online multiplayer content:
- Twice the amount of experience points will be awarded during the first week of play, enabling gamers to expedite character ranking
- The AK-47 weapon will unlock at rank one
- The Officer Class will unlock at rank one. This character class includes several team-based advantages, such as reducing damage to teammates and increasing the effectiveness of other classes
- Access to the FUBAR Pack, which contains exclusive accessories allowing players to customize their characters with unique and visually distinctive items
