New Firefighter F.D. 18 details

Konami gets hot under the collar.

In anticipation of the release of Firefighter F.D. 18 on the PS2, Konami Europe has released some details to go along with our gallery of screenshots. Players, as firefighter Dean McGregor, become involved in a mysterious outbreak of fires around the game's huge city setting. During each firefighting mission, an "intelligent" camera tracks players as they face chemical explosions, backdrafts and flashovers while attempting to rescue trapped survivors in locations that vary from towers blocks to a luxury cruiser. All this while getting involved in a "twisting plot" surrounding the mystery of the fire eruptions, and some "interaction" between McGregor and a TV reporter. Crikey! The game is due to hit the shelves in April 2004.
