With resources scarce and Uncle Sam not wanting things to escalate, a team of US Marine Corp operatives are sent in douse the conflict, attempting to prevent the spread of conflict.
Promising to enter gamers into a "chillingly realistic conflict" (where have we heard that before?, I wonder), gamers will be constantly assailed by the threat of impending death, as in the world of Operation Flashpoint, a single bullet can take a life.

Tactics are everything in Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising. If players charge in Rambo-style, as in some first-person shooters, it will be game over, very quickly. We empower players to approach things differently and use every available tactic and resource to achieve their objectives.Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising will be released in Spring this year (hopefully around September) and will be available on the PC, PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360.
