Product Description
Fast-forward to the year 2161, where ecological and seismological disasters have radically altered the planet's landscape, and a clash in ideologies places society on the threshold of war. Set foot on the frontlines as Mason Briggs, a demolitions expert fighting for the Atlantic Alliance. Pitted against the genetically enhanced soldiers of the Pacifican army, you will experience a revolution in 22nd-century warfare. In utilizing the core gameplay mechanic of Fracture, a destructive technology known as Terrain Deformation, you are equipped with an arsenal of futuristic weaponry to strategically reshape your surroundings on the fly. Every action you perform dynamically reshapes the earth. When Briggs throws a tectonic grenade on a level battlefield, the ground blasts upward to provide access to an otherwise unreachable area. Moving on, when he comes across what appears to be an impenetrable structure, Briggs utilizes the alt-fire functionality on his rocket launcher to create enormous craters to burrow underneath the wall. Surrounded on all sides by enemies, Briggs heaves a vortex grenade, creating a swirling tornado-like mass of boulder, dirt and debris to dispatch his foes. These are just a few samples of the possibilities for Terrain Deformation. You not only change the battlefield - you change the face of the battle itself.

Reshape the battlefield -- and the fate -- of a broken nation in Fracture. The new IP from LucasArts and Day 1 Studios is "groundbreaking" in more ways than one. As Jet Brody, a demolitions expert in Atlantic Alliance, you use explosives and terrain-deforming weaponry to change the face of battle between a divided America. Amidst a backdrop of worldwide ecological and seismological chaos in the mid-2100s, the United States has been split in two by the "Great Flood". As a result of the polar ice cap melting, the Mississippi River has destroyed the central portion of the United States, causing an ill-equipped Federal Government to fail and literally cutting the country in half. Set in the mid-2100s with a backdrop of worldwide ecological and seismological chaos, Fracture entertains a plausible future conflict. As stem cell research continues to proliferate and spiral out of control, ideological differences over genetic enhancement place the player at the threshold of an epic battle of genetics vs. cybernetics, as two powerful armies, with vastly differing tactics and advantages, square off. The battlefield will change forever.
