SEGA reveals Renegade Ops

SEGA have unveiled Renegade Ops, a new digital download game by Just Cause developer Avalanche Studios. The game puts players in a mobile commando unit sent behind enemy lines to defeat Inferno, a madman intent on global domination, and features single player, 2 player split screen and online 4 player co-operative gameplay modes.

"Renegade Ops is Avalanche Studios' first strategic step into the world of digitally downloaded games, but certainly not the last. With a strong foundation in our unique technology, we can allow our teams working on digitally downloaded games to unleash their creativity," commented Linus Blomberg, Executive Producer at Avalanche Studios.

"A number of developers in the studio wanted to try developing a smaller digital project, so we gathered a team, built a new IP and SEGA gave us the opportunity to carry this out. The IP is all about driving or flying around blowing stuff up while playing with your friends and that to us, is a dream-project," comments Andreas Thorsén, Senior Producer.

"Renegade Ops is SEGA's first new IP on the digital space and we are thrilled with the remarkable visual look and extensive features that the game has to offer. It has been a great opportunity to work with a team as successful as Avalanche Studios,"commented Haruki Satomi, Vice President of Digital Business at SEGA. "Playing Renegade Ops with friends will be a hugely enjoyable experience which will stand out above other multiplayer online co-op games."
