Overstrike (video game)



Overstrike is an upcoming four-player cooperative action video game for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 that will feature a team of elite agents called "Overstrike 9", slated for release worldwide in 2012. First shown at the Electronic Entertainment Expo 2011 (E3 2011), no gameplay was shown during the presentation, and no release date was announced.



Along with an ex-mercenary named Dalton Brooks, voiced by David Kaye, the game will follow a lifelong thief, a gifted young scientist, and a decorated detective, the members of Overstrike 9 that are considered outcasts within their own organization. Players must stop a global terrorist group from attempting to wipe out humankind. Overstrike 9 uses lethal teamwork and an arsenal of fringe-tech gadgets to infiltrate and destroy enemy strongholds.



The game is currently in development by Insomniac Games, and is being published by Electronic Arts as part of the EA Partners program (EAP). This marks the first time Insomniac will own its own IP, and is a departure from their usual publisher, Sony Computer Entertainment.
