One of the most successful PlayStation Portable titles has been SOCOM Fireteam Bravo 2. The title — which was released in 2006 — offered portable gamers 16-player online battles on-the-go. This was something that made it an instant hit amongst handheld owners and helped give the game some longevity. Today, Sony has revealed Fireteam Bravo 3.
FB3 is being developed by SlantSix, the same group of developers who brought PlayStation 3 owners SOCOM: Confrontation and PSP owners SOCOM Tactical Strike. Unfortunately, those hoping that this was being developed by Zipper Interactive will be disappointed to say the least. However, we have confidence that SlantSix can create a stellar experience that will make Zipper proud.
New to the game is the ability to play missions with other players around the world. The story will follow operatives on their mission to find an ex-KGB agent named Alexander Gozorov, who is believed to be holding intel on an upcoming attack that involves weapons of mass destruction. As expected, FB3 will also provide online gameplay much like its predecessor. This also includes voice chat, medals and ranks all while competing for the top spot on the online leaderboards.
