Watch World War II unfold in real-time 3D.
Control camera movement and get up close to the action.
Experience stunning real-time 3D visuals, dramatic effects, and powerful orchestrations in the latest from the P.T.O. series.
Up to 96 realistic 3D battleships, aircraft carriers, destroyers, submarines and other vessels, plus as many as 300 different aircraft, wage naval battles of amazing ferocity on the high seas.
Gun turrets swivel and blasts from hundreds of guns roar simultaneously, painting the skies red. Pillars of water erupt as missiles hit the ocean. Ships burst into flames. Smoke enshrouds the scene of battle. Screams and yells punctuate the air as a ship slowly sinks into the hidden depths.
In this highly realistic atmosphere, the player must guide his fleet to ultimate victory. We have recreated the atmosphere of the period with a realistic command room rendered in full 3D. Surrounded by this old wartime atmosphere the player becomes Commander whose decisions decide the fate of the entire world.
Over 100 of the bravest and best commanders from Japan, America, England, and Germany pursue victory.
As a first in the series, we have added England and Germany and expanded the battle to encompass the entire world.
100 Commanders from the 4 powers appear. By appointing each of these Commanders to a ship, you increase the effectiveness of the ship and gain the advantage in battle. Each Commander gains experience from every battle he participates in. Increase your rank and take command of Battleships and Carriers; the kind of ships that control the flow of battle. Using this Fleet Agent System, Koei recreates the exciting chaos of naval battle.
Two types of scenarios: Campaign and Short scenarios.
Take control of the fleets of Japan, America, England, and Germany in an attempt to gain control of the entire world… OR Engage in a short battle at one of the famous campaigns that made the history of that period.
1. Campaign Scenario: Choose from 1939, when Germany and England first plunged into war, and 1941, when America and Japan joined in the fighting in the Pacific Theater of Operations.
2. Short Scenario: Campaign at some of the famous battles of World War II. “The Battle of Midway,” “Battle of the Mariana Straits,” “Battle of Ceylon” and others allow the players to try out their theories on how that battle should have been fought.
At the end of these short campaigns, you are given the chance to move into regular game play. Experience the world of "what if." What if the Japanese had been victorious at Midway? You find out!
Over 50 Theaters of Operation!
From Midway to the Mediterranean, every conquest brings you closer to victory! Assemble U.S., Japanese, German, or British forces. Deploy your fleets and storm enemy garrisons.
