New PSP Strategy Sim: Patton's Campaign

Are you a fan of highly-detailed WWII strategy games? We certainly are, and it is with great pleasure that we introduce a brand new exclusive PSP strategy sim called Legends of War: Patton's Campaign. The title is in development by a small European studio called Enigma Productions. Currently the developer is searching for a publisher for the project, but after having seen the amazing 3D screenshots of the game in action below, we expect a publishing deal to be reached soon.

In this turn-based strategy game, players assume the role of General Patton, commanding the Third U.S. Army, also known as "Patton's Own". Gamers will lead their troops from the beaches of France to the city of Berlin, along a complete Campaign composed of 35 different missions, with varied objectives to fight Nazi forces. The folks at Enigma say that it is even possible to change the course of history, depending on players' actions during the campaign.

The campaign mode combines 2 different game sequences: a high-level strategic management part, to set up your army with the units of your choice which can be evolved to acquire new features and skills; and a tactical and turn-based part, where you will fight across different battlefields seeking the defeat of Nazi army with the least casualties and number of turns possible.

The developers are not shy about making their intentions with this title clear: they hope that Patton's Campaign will be the first in a series of military sims in which players assume the role of well-known historical characters.
