We're excited about bundling Xfire into our new Savage: The Battle for Newerth Demo." 'Savage: The Battle for Newerth', is an evolutionary game, uniquely marrying the first-person-shooter genre with the resource management and hierarchy of a real-time strategy game. Savage is a multiplayer-only game of brutal combat in which teams of up to 32 players battle against other factions. Each team comprises up to 31 warriors who battle from a first-person perspective and one commander who build bases and weaponry and issues tactical advice to his side. It is this fusion of viewpoints that has created a fanatical US community, which has been enjoying Savage since its release there late last November. Indeed, the New York Times has described it as "the most innovative game of the year". Further game details and the latest news can be found on the dedicated website www.savageeurope.com Savage: The Battle For Newerth special European Edition will be released on February 27th 2004 in the UK, priced £29.99, and throughout Europe in March and April.
