Philips announced today a new agreement with Ubisoft. Under terms of this deal, amBX will be implemented into Tom Clancy's HAWX. The "Enhanced Reality System" will be used to simulate air combat lighting and movement using LED lights and variable speed desktop fans.

"Tom Clancy's HAWX comes hot on the heels of our Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway amBX announcement with Ubisoft and further underlines our commitment to bringing amBX to world class gaming. Building amBX into the game during development maximizes the effects that can be achieved, guaranteeing an incredibly immersive gaming experience," commented Jo Cooke, Chief Marketing Officer, Philips amBX. "Tom Clancy's HAWX is another example of a completely different genre of game that amBX can enhance and we're looking forward to super realistic air combat lighting, wind and rumble effects that PC gamers haven't been able to experience to-date."

amBX reps said that this announcement "coincides with sweeping price reductions across the Philips amBX PC Gaming Peripherals range, taking the Starter Kit price point below the competitive $150 mark."
