TimeShift Fan Site Kit Blasts onto the Web
Thanks to Atari and Saber Interactive, potential webmasters don't have to speed up time to share their excitement for TimeShift, the upcoming first-person shooter poised to reinvigorate the genre with unprecedented time-control elements that allow players to slow, stop and reverse the flow of time. The companies today released a new Fan Site Kit for the title, which offers webmasters a vast array of resources-including a massive collection of screenshots, logos and other media from the upcoming game-to create their very own TimeShift fan sites. The TimeShift FSK is now available at http:// www.timeshiftgame.com.
Scheduled for release in spring 2006 for Windows and Xbox 360â„¢ video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, TimeShift puts players in the role of Michael Swift, a test pilot tapped by the U.S. Government to assess two new time-control devices. Swift is sent back in time to collect data but returns to Washington D.C. in an alternate timeline where he is an enemy of the state. Armed with his wits and a high-tech suit that allows him to control the flow of time, Swift fights through urban, outdoor, aerial and indoor environments to set time straight once more. Players can fight through a single-player campaign featuring 11 missions and more than 30 levels or in multiplayer mode where up to 16 players can battle online using special time-based weaponry.
