Cold Winter now shipping to retail

Back to Cold Winter (PS2)

Vivendi Universal Games (VU Games) announced today that the shockingly gritty first-person shooter Cold Winter has shipped to retail nationwide, and will be fully distributed in stores by June 1. Developed exclusively for the PlayStation2 computer entertainment system, the intense first-person shooter (FPS) action thriller immerses gamers in a modern and deep story set in the shadowy world of international espionage.

"Cold Winter is a visceral and tactile shooter that brings the precision, feedback and pacing of traditional PC FPS combat to the PlayStation 2," said Philip W. O'Neil, Chief Operating Officer and President, North America for Vivendi Universal Games. "The impressive technology, realistic plot and beautifully lifelike elements provide gamers with a truly immersive and engaging sense of being right in the action."

In Cold Winter, the player is Andrew Sterling, a disavowed British MI6 agent who does what it takes and is prepared to kill in good conscience. Gamers will experience incredibly realistic interaction throughout highly-detailed and life-like environments, featuring real-world physics, searching fallen enemies and manipulating objects to use as cover. As players encounter intelligent adversaries, they can choose from an arsenal of over 30 weapons which inflict extremely graphic zone-specific body damage and produce realistic rag-doll death animations. The original storyline -- set in 2002 and written in collaboration with noted author Warren Ellis -- is revealed through beautiful and dramatic cinematics.

Developed by U.K.-based Swordfish Studios, Cold Winter is currently available in North America on PlayStation 2 for a suggested retail price of $49.99 and with an ESRB "M" for Mature rating.
