Have you been loading up on your Nectar? Are you ready to test your skills? Ubisoft, Game Crazy, and GGL have teamed up to bring you an Official Haze 4v4 Tournament, where the top squad can win $5,000! The second place squad takes home two Ubisoft games per player, and everyone gets to join in on the thrill of heated competition.
The game drops on 5/20/08 but we’ll open up a Practice Ladder right here on 5/14/08 - join the group and start finding teammates now, so you can join the ladder and start challenging and playing opponents as soon as it opens. On 6/4/08 the Practice Ladder will be reset (all squads’ records and points set to 0), and we will start the official Ladder Stage.You can challenge other squads, play matches, and move up and down the ladder. Points are awarded not only for winning, but also just for playing, so the more you play the better you will do! At the end of the Ladder Stage on 7/13/08, the top 64 squads will advance to a single-elimination bracket, and the winner of the bracket phase gets $5,000!
This is just a reminder that the demo of Haze, previously announced as out “early May,” will be hitting the PlayStation Network tomorrow, May 8. The demo features 4 player, drop-in/drop-out co-op multiplayer, as well as part of the standard single-player campaign. I don’t know about you guys, but I think it’s worth a download.
Today it was announced that Haze, the PS3 exclusive FPS, will be arriving in stores May 20. A demo will be available in “early May,” and will feature 4 player, drop-in/drop-out co-op multiplayer, as well as part of the standard single-player campaign.
Sounds like a pretty sweet demo. Hopefully the game has been improving after all the delays.
The full press release is after the jump. Continued…
The PlayStation 3 exclusive Haze has had a rough time getting to store shelves. The game was originally supposed to hit retail in time for the holidays, but to no avail.
After that date was missed, Ubisoft said it would be out before April. Now Ubisoft has announced that they are pushing the game back to an unspecified time in the 08-09 fiscal year (after March).
Personally I think it’s a shame that Haze keeps getting delayed. It’s a (supposed) AAA PlayStation 3 exclusive that isn’t exactly getting AAA treatment.
