Velvet Assassin

 

Set in World War 2, Velvet Assassin (στην αρχη ηταν γνωστο ως Sabotage) is a 3rd person shooter combining intense battles with guerrilla missions, featuring extensive stealth elements and challenging puzzles.

 

The player takes on the role of MI6 agent Violette Summer. Alone and behind enemy lines, she infiltrates military installations, places explosive charges and takes out high-ranking enemies silent and deadly.

 

Already an exception in the genre as a female protagonist, Violette is a new type of action heroine. She is a lone warrior, taking on the most difficult assignments and securing a place among the toughest games heroes.Cool and calculating, she moves through her assignments with intense concentration, always ready to strike. Without flinching, she knocks down doors and applies her weapons arsenal, giving everything for her missions success.

 

Detailed real-life locations lend the scenarios more realism and authentic challenges, providing a true-to-life backdrop for the fictitious resistance fighter missions. Violettes assignments take her into the faithfully modelled cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris. All around the church, soldiers can be seen pilfering pieces of art, while Violette is pursuing her mission, taking her all the way onto the roof of the famous cathedral.

 

"This is a project weʼve been incredibly excited about from the start," said Sascha Jungnickel, Creative Director at Replay Studios. "Velvet Assassin is going to be an amazing experience both in its visual style and gameplay, it will be awesome to get it to such a massive audience."

 

Heroine Violette Summer was influenced to some degree by the actual French resistance fighter Violette Szabo, who completed several dangerous assignments for Great Britain before being executed in Ravensbrueck concentration camp. She was the first woman to be posthumously awarded such high honors as the British King Georges Cross and the French Croix de la Guerre. However, at this point, Violette Szabo and Violette Summer have little else in common than their first names. While Szabo is a real-life hero of the Rιsistance, Violette Summer is purely a work of fiction.

 

Velvet Assassin stands out through its unique look and balanced mixture of stealth and action elements: one moment the game might reward a deliberate, tactical and silent approach and the next moment you will have to keep your cool in fierce shootouts. Small puzzles will spice up the missions occasionally.

 

Additionally, you can develop Violettes skills and equipment with the help of collectible items you find throughout the game, which give access to better weapons or level up her basic abilities.

 

Features:

• Brutal assassinations and sabotage missions - Bring your enemies to a violent end that they'll never see coming. For example, lure your enemy by whistle to a puddle of gasoline right before you ignite it.
  
• Stylized environments - Explore hyper-realistic dreamlike settings that are modeled after actual World War II locations.
  
• Unique and realistic gameplay perspective - Experience the unimaginable horrors of stealthy, off-battlefield warfare. And discover letters and treasures left behind by German soldiers.

• 12 breath-taking levels - Go on assassination missions, try to survive Violette's nightmares, and complete a rescue mission that is anything but life saving.
  
• Adjustable skills - By completing missions, change Violette's attributes to suit your play style, whether it be more stealth or strength.
  
• Stunning and vibrant environments are as rich and haunting as the dreams and memories that inspired them.
  
• Hunt for enemy targets as Violette narrates the story and feeds you insider information.
  
• Dynamic lighting makes shadows and beams of light realistically move adding intensity to gameplay.
  
• Meet interesting characters in a story of betrayal and horror.
  
• Infiltrate Nazi military installations only to destroy them with explosive charges. And silently slaughter key leaders in the enemy regime.
  
• Using historically accurate guns and knives, Violette sneaks up behind her enemies to silently and viciously execute them.
  

Gamecock will release Velvet Assassin worldwide for PS3, X360 and PC in the fall 2008.

Velvet Assassin Updated Impressions

The stealth genre gets a bit sexier.

 

Of all the game names in all the land, Velvet Assassin is one of the most bizarre I've heard. Formerly known as Sabotage, the folks at Gamecock decided to change the name upon hearing that Pandemic's stealth-action game was going by the name of Saboteur. In fear of destroying the minds of consumers everywhere, they settled on Velvet Assassin. While you do play a stealthy killer, your name isn't Velvet, nor do you dawn any velvety garb. At least not in the level that I was shown during the demo.

 

There was one portion of Velvet Assassin, however, where the soft and silky substance worn by so many pimps the world over made its way into the gameplay. As anyone who has been following our coverage knows, Velvet Assassin is similar to Splinter Cell in several ways. First, you won't be running in guns blazing. Velvet is all about going the stealthy route, sneaking up behind your prey and then using one of the more than 50 execution moves on them. While there are gun fights, just like in Splinter Cell, you won't (or at least, you shouldn't) find yourself up against insurmountable odds while ducking behind pieces of cover and blindfiring over it. Any baddies that you manage to bag will need to be dragged into the darkness to remain unseen...
