Players will become Captain America as he faces the [B]Red Skull[/B] and his army in a third-person action adventure set in the darkest days of World War II. Wielding Captain America's powerful shield, gamers will engage in free-flowing combat and acrobatic platforming to infiltrate Hydra's mysterious castle and battle the infamous Iron Cross, the forces of Hydra, and a host of nefarious enemies serving the Red Skull. As the First Avenger himself, players must defeat the evil scientist [B]Arnim Zola[/B] ([I]concept art pictured above[/I]) and his wartime experiments, combining powerful melee combos and shield attacks to devastating effect.

[B]Captain America: Super Soldier[/B] combines a highly athletic combat system with fluid platforming and a highly tuned suite of shield attacks, as Cap explores a massive castle turned military installation. His shield can be employed in numerous ways: taking out multiple enemies at once, deflecting incoming fire back at enemies, solving puzzles, and scaling walls.

The original story for [B]Captain America: Super Soldier[/B] is being penned by noted comic, film, and TV writer [B]Christos Gage[/B]. The primary writer for the Marvel's [I]Avengers: The Initiative[/I] series of comics, Gage has written numerous books for major Marvel characters, including [I]Siege: Captain America[/I], [I]Iron Man[/I], [I]X-Men[/I], [I]Spider-Man[/I], [I]Civil War: House of M[/I], and [I]Union Jack[/I].

Gage wrote his original story for [B]Captain America: Super Soldier[/B] so that the setting exists within the same world as the upcoming movie of the same name, but he infused the game with twists designed to enhance gameplay with all-new action sequences.
