Enemy Territory: Quake Wars will offer gamers the chance to give the Strogg a crash course on human kick-ass history and send them back to their home planet once and for all. The game also has a twist as players will also have a chance to see how the other half… fights.
Enemy Territory: Quake Wars is an online strategic shooter and if you are unclear as to what that means think class-based multiplayer or to make things more obvious, Battlefield 2 but with aliens. The game is a prequel to the Quake 2/Quake 4 games while it is set only 60 years into the future making most of the weapons and vehicles somewhat familiar. The secret weapon for any developer is including an alien race in the game as that provides the creative freedom to explore various weapon and vehicle designs and formats. Enemy Territory: Quake Wars will be a pure multiplayer game.

A Brief History of… Strogg
The new Enemy Territory: Quake Wars game will pit the forces of the Global Defence Force against the forces of the alien invaders; the Strogg. A quick look at the description of the gameplay may remind readers of the popular Battlefield franchise but you have to view this game as a continuation of something that started a lot earlier. Splash Damage, the people behind ET:QW, were also responsible for the creation of Return to Castle Wolfenstein and its highly successful multiplayer add-on; Enemy Territory. The same team was also involved in some of the multiplayer work on Doom 3 so they do have a plan and it takes place in the Quake Universe.
