There has been plenty of new info in the last few days on Ubisoft’s upcoming RTS, EndWar. However, it’s the newest bit that seems (at least to me) most interesting and intriguing. EndWar will have more than just a name in common with some of Tom Clancy’s most popular games - the main groups will be featured in it. It makes sense that the very best would be involved in the next World War, and “the different elements of the Tom Clancy universe can come together in different roles.” From the elite soldiers in Ghost Recon to the members of Rainbow Six to the Third Echelon from Splinter Cell, people from all over Tom Clancy’s games will be there to fight in World War III. Micheal de Plater, creative director at Ubisoft, has the details:

The Ghosts…actually appear as elite forces in EndWar’s armies. Some of the members of Team Rainbow, the European guys, also end up as military commanders and Third Echelon brings the intel. So it’s really an over-arching story that sees many different genres and points of view come together for World War III.

This could really be awesome. While the gameplay will obviously be very different from previous Tom Clancy games, having bits of the story and setting from others will make this game really interesting. It’s the closest thing to a combination of everything Tom Clancy has done so far, and as more information trickles out it is looking like it’s going to be a very good game.
