Steel Panthers： Watchtower Guadalcanal 1942

Steel Panthers: Watchtower Guadalcanal 1942 has been developed for THQ and is set for release in March on all major console platforms.

Titus Traver, the lead designer of the last title, states that the game will feature the same large environments as the previous title, but will include more than 100 historically accurate battle tanks and fighter jets.

The game's character model and animation are being implemented for the first time, and the developer has been using the studio's engine to create authentic military models for the role-playing game, which will make a return to the series after being dropped by the Soviet army.

The game is rated M for Mature and will retail for $39.99 when it is released later this month. For more information on the title, take a look at GameSpot's previous coverage.
