Area 51 Demo Featured on MK: Deception

Company: Midway
Product: Area 51

Midway Amusement Games has announced that gamers can now whet their first-person shooter appetites with a taste of Midway?s upcoming Sci-Fi thriller Area 51 by playing a demo that?s featured on the recently shipped Mortal Kombat: Deception. Featuring top-notch Hollywood voice talent of David Duchovny as Hazmat Ethan Cole, Powers Boothe as Major Bridges, and shock-rocker Marilyn Manson as Edgar the gray alien, Area 51 is scheduled for release in February 2005 on the PlayStation 2 and Xbox.

Area 51 is the only action-packed 1st person shooter set in the U.S. government?s most secret and secure military facility. The U.S. Army has received a distress signal from Area 51 where a viral outbreak has just shut down the research facility, and the automated quarantine procedures have locked all scientific and military personnel inside. A small Special Forces unit led by Specialist Ethan Cole of the HAZMAT (hazardous materials) Division is sent to investigate. As Cole, players will delve into several massive levels within the confines of Area 51, discovering a deadly mutagenic side effect of the virus that controls the minds of those infected, as well as an ancient alien colony buried beneath the facility. With a multitude of human and alien weapons, players must explore chilling conspiracies such as the extraterrestrial crash at Roswell and the faked lunar landing, in order to solve the enigma of Area 51 before the viral mutagen is released and irrevocably mutates all life on Earth.
