It looks like the recent Tom Clancy viral campaign is no longer a mystery. Ubisoft officially announced the next entry in the Tom Clancy franchise today. Titled EndWar, the game is being built from the ground up for new generation consoles. While specific platforms have not yet been named, it's a fairly safe bet the game will end up on the Xbox 360. EndWar is set in World War III and "will allow gamers to lead their own armies against hundreds of others online." The game is being headed by Michael de Plater who has worked on the PC Total War series for some time now. EndWar is described as a "war strategy game," and considering the talent behind it, it seems like we're in for a brand new RTS. The game is being developed by Ubisoft Shanghai, the team behind Splinter Cell: Double Agent. It's expected to debut sometime this fiscal year (which began this month, so it could easily be 2008).

A new gen RTS with Tom Clancy flavor? Where do we sign up?

Oh god, that sounds so good. Has TomClancy made an RTS yet? There are so many under his name. :P

i'm glad they are doing a new franchise. there have been so many splinter cell and ghost recon games lately that i think people want something a little fresh from the Tom Clancy games again.

Do you think it will be a third person shooter like call of duty 3 or gears, or will you control an entire army with the click of a button like lord of the rings. If it's like Gears, I'll buy it.

We brought word yesterday that the EndWar viral site password had been discovered, revealing a pair of video clips. Our friends at The Xbox Domain have uncovered the viral footage in handy YouTube form. As a public service to our readers, we have posted it here. We have to say though, even for viral footage, this stuff is pretty tame. The camera shaking and constant static effect nearly nullifies the whole experience. Honestly, if we didn't know from where the footage came, we'd have no idea what it was (which is sort of the point of viral marketing, we suppose). Still, if you've got a hankering for some Tom Clancy flavored World War III action, you might as well check it out. Hopefully it won't be too long before we see some actual gameplay.

Splinter Cell and GRAW aren't the only games they're developing right now you know. :whistle:
