Cellfactor Revolution announced

Artificial Studios, an independent videogame developer, announced today the December 2006 release of CellFactor: Revolution. The title is an action-packed first-person shooter with true-to- life physics for the PC, which takes advantage of the capabilities of the dedicated AGEIA PhysX processor.

Developed by Artificial Studios in conjunction with Immersion Games and originally conceived as a technology demonstration to showcase the capabilities of AGEIA"s PhysX processor, CellFactor: Combat Training has received overwhelming industry support. The game trailer video was first shown at the 2006 Game Developers Conference and downloaded more than a million times. Since then, Artificial Studios has built entirely new gameplay for CellFactor: Revolution, featuring five worlds with fully destructible architecture, playable as a single-player or network supported (LAN or broadband online) game.

"CellFactor: Revolution fuses unpredictable psychic-powered warfare with awesome effects to produce a first-person shooter experience unlike any other," said Jeremy Stieglitz, president of Artificial Studios. "Every day we continue to discover new ways to harness the extensive capabilities of the PhysX processor, which opens up a whole new range of gameplay scenarios." In CellFactor: Revolution, gamers can manipulate thousands of objects simultaneously, control vehicles and fight against AI-controlled opponents or challenge friends to a match in the networked gameplay modes. CellFactor: Revolution establishes a new standard in physical interaction, combining multiplayer gameplay with massive environmental destruction.
 
Selecting from a range of characters with unique psychic and weapon abilities, players will manipulate the environment to pull, push or lift objects and propel oneself around the levels. The realistic gameplay powered by the PhysX processor allow the player to experience explosions that cause dust and collateral debris, wield powerful new weapons with volatile effects, and witness natural cloth, liquid and smoke phenomena.
