CDV's Night Watch Ships to North American Retail

Game based on the cult hit action film heads to stores

CDV Software Entertainment USA has shipped Night Watch, a tactical RPG based on the hit Russian movie of the same name, to US retail today. Players in Night Watch will explore a world filled with magic and mystery as the attempt to maintain the balance between good and evil. More information about Night Watch is available at http://www.night-watch-game.com/, while media assets can be found at http://www.gamespress.com/cdv.

In the Night Watch universe, there are people among us who appear ordinary, but who are different; they call themselves "Others." These Others can channel magical power as devastating attacks and defenses. Those who support the forces of light are known as the Night Watch, while those that fight on the side of darkness are the Day Watch. These two sides have been locked in an epic battle with the common hope of one ultimately claiming a decisive victory and a right to rule the world.

Developed by Nival Interactive, the studio that created the critically acclaimed Blitzkrieg and Silent Storm series, Night Watch will ask players to take on the role of a recently initiated Other as he strives to comprehend the mystical powers he has recently discovered, and to make sense of the role he plays in this epic struggle that could very well determine the future of mankind.
