CDV signs Grinning Vultures

Ballistics developers find home for their new Xbox project

The latest signing for rapidly growing German publisher CDV is Vultures, a gladiatorial combat game for the Xbox developed by Grin, the Swedish team behind Ballistics. With a range of detailed arenas and a wide selection of classic and futuristic weapons to pick from, CDV are hoping it will follow in the chart-topping footsteps of Sudden Strike and Cossacks. "Not only has Vultures all the features to become a high quality title for console, but [it] also promises to revive the genre", licensing director Johannes Friederich enthused. "Huge arenas, a unique styling and realistic fight scenes make this title exceptional in its genre." Related Feature - Ballistics review
