Sierra Entertainment has announced the development of a new game for the PSP, M.A.C.H. (Modified Air Combat Heroes). The game is a flight combat-racing game.
Game Overview:
- In the year 2049, the governments of the world switched to unmanned aircraft for combat in an attempt to save lives. By doing so, they decommissioned thousands of jets and their fighter pilots, ironically destroying the livelihood of those they were trying to save. Years later, these planes appeared on the black market and were sold to the highest bidders. It was not long before an underground emerged, featuring ex-fighter pilots, smugglers and wealthy hobbyists piloting the decommissioned aircraft. In a competition of fight and flight, these pilots heavily modify their jet fighters to outrace and out duel the competition to win fame, glory and fortune. Welcome to the world of M.A.C.H.
Cindy Cook, chief strategy and marketing officer for Vivendi Games says, “We are proud of the accolades M.A.C.H. has received from a highly respected gaming publication such as Weekly Famitsu. This endorsement of M.A.C.H.’s thrilling aerial combat and racing action reinforces our goal of providing an arcade-style gameplay experience that will deliver intense pick-up-and-play excitement for any PSP or flying fan.”
M.A.C.H. will have different modes like Arcade, Career, Challenge and Multiplayer. Gamers can choose from 11 planes and 180 over-the-top configurations. The game will be published by Vivendi Games and will first release in Japan in January, after which it will hit other territories. And yes, the game is a PSP exclusive.
