The Saboteur trailer is just getting started with the mayhem

"Inspired by a true story, The Saboteur stars Sean Devlin, a street-tough Irish race car driver trapped behind enemy lines in 1940s Nazi-occupied France. Motivated by personal revenge, Sean fights, climbs, and races through open-world Paris, sneaking into the heart of the Nazi operations and sabotaging their every move. With the help of the French Resistance, the British intelligence, an arsenal of weaponry, street smarts and brawn, players will exact revenge on those who aim to destroy Sean's life. From derailing trains and blowing up zeppelins to scaling famous Parisian landmarks and more, this action hero uses a broad range of weapons, explosives and vehicles to get the job done."

Knife a (virtual) Nazi with your Saboteur pre-order offer


It's looking like The Saboteur could be the last major PC game release of 2009 (assuming no further delays) and the game's publisher Electronic Arts wants to give folks who pre-order the WWII action game a leg up on the title's virtual Nazis. If you put your money down on the game at GameStop you will get what's pictured above.

Now don't go running to Mom that GameStop is selling knives to its customers. This is an extra in-game weapon that you will get access to in the Pandemic Studios-developed title. Yes by pre-ordering the game you will be able to use the knife to handle a "silent and swift execution maneuver" upon the Nazis who are holding Paris during the war.

The Saboteur trailer takes in the sights of Paris... then blows them up

This trailer for The Saboteur asks, "What is an Irishman doing in Paris?" It turns out the answer is pretty simple: drink and hang out with girls at speakeasies when not out fighting for an underground resistance. Touring Paris entails a lot of rooftop hopping, shooting up Nazis and blowing stuff up. Sounds like the perfect vacation. The Saboteur is expected to release in December.

Electronic Arts may not be making Dante's Inferno for the PC but another multiplatform game is getting a PC port and as of today a release date. The publisher announced that The Saboteur, developed by Pandemic Studios, will be released for the PC and other platforms on December 8.

Once again, if you happen to be heading to the San Diego Comic-Con this week you will be able to play the game at EA's booth. There's also a panel for The Saboteur that will be held on Saturday at the show. The WWII open world action game, set in Nazi-occupied Paris, will likely be one of the last major game releases of 2009.

The Saboteur gets bloody in new screenshots


While Replay Games and Southpeak get ready to release their WWII stealth action game Velvet Assassin next week, the long-in-development WWII title The Saboteur is still several months away from completion. This week its publisher Electronic Arts released some new screenshots from the game that sometimes show off some non-stealthy (and bloody) shooting

The new shots from developer Pandemic Studios give a sense of the game's open world setting of Nazi-occupied Paris. As the character Sean Devlin, you have to be able to both sneak around Paris and fulfill missions. The game itself shifts from black-and-white to color as more and more of Paris is liberated. At the moment there's no set release date for the game.

The Saboteur comes out of the cold with new official web site


It's been a long, long time since any news has come out about Pandemic's WWII stealth action game Saboteur. The game was first revealed via an Game Informer print magazine article in 2007 but since then info about the title has been hard to come by. The game was under development before Pandemic's purchase by EA in early 2008 and ever since then.

This week Pandemic has finally launched a full web site for the game and also revealed that the title has changed slightly. Instead of just "Saboteur" they have added a "The" before it. Hmm.. Anyway, The Saboteur's web site has some new screenshots and a little more info about the open world action game set in Nazi occupied Paris. Pandemic and EA plan to release the game sometime before March 31, 2010.
