The War of the Worlds is a brand new action adventure game offering players a dark and breathtaking new vision of the classic H.G. Wells novel. The game, which IGN called “Out of this world,” pits players in a challenging story of survival as a lone person trying to escape chaos and destruction amidst an alien invasion in 1950s London.  The gameplay parallels the timeline and events from the 1953 movie adaptation, while introducing a new story arc, characters, locations, and sub-plots where players must outsmart an army of alien tripods and other menacing war machines as they make their way through a landscape of total devastation.  Featuring the voice of acclaimed TV and film star Patrick Stewart as the narrator, The War of the Worlds is an exciting and atmospheric survival-adventure game, not to be missed!
