NovaLogic announced recently that Delta Force - Black Hawk Down has shipped to retail worldwide. The game is based on the events in Operation Restore Hope during the 1993 Mogadishu campaign in Somalia. Assuming the roles of Delta Force, US Army Rangers and 10th Mountain Division, players can play through an authentic single player campaign or fight against dozens of opponents online.

"In making the game we had two goals -- first and foremost we wanted to create a fun and innovative title, but we wanted to do it in a way that honors those who served. More than any other entertainment medium to date, Delta Force - Black Hawk Down tells the unabridged story of the heroes that fought in Somalia," stated Dave Pollack, NovaLogic's Vice President of Sales and Marketing. "To ensure that the game was accurate we worked with a number of subject matter experts that fought on the ground during the campaign. The result is a game that is not only fun to play, but also tells an important story. The soldiers that fought in the battle of Mogadishu and took part in both Task Force Ranger and Operation Restore Hope campaigns got the job done."

Delta Force - Black Hawk Down is rated "T" for Teen and is available on PS2 and Xbox for the SRP of $49.99.
