Bodycount demo out on XBL

The demo for Bodycount is now out on Xbox Live, Codemasters has announced.

It will see the players go through the early African missions, assuming the role of a Network Operative dropped into a warzone. Equipped with a “turbo-charged arsenal of weapons”, including the likes of the G36 SMG, Super 90 Shotgun, grenades and proximity mines, your mission is to track down a militia warlord.

Here is the press release from the devs:

Go ballistic by downloading the Bodycount demo from Xbox LIVE Marketplace today. The demo lets players sample the outrageous and over-the-top arcade gunplay that takes centre stage in the shooter that will make players fall in love with firepower. A new video showing the demo’s explosive firefights is now showing at www.youtube.com/bodycountgame.

“Fans should expect a lot of mayhem, a lot of destruction, fun, fast paced arcade action,” said Max Cant, Art Director. “It’s much more of an A-Team experience than some sort of dour, self-obsessed, self-important thing. If you want to have fun, play Bodycount.”

Set in the early stages of Bodycount’s African missions, players will assume the role of a Network Operative dropped into a chaotic warzone, tasked with tracking down a militia warlord responsible for massacring an army unit. Players, equipped with a turbo-charged arsenal of weapons including the G36 SMG, Super 90 Shotgun, grenades and proximity mines, must engage forces from all sides in blistering-paced gun-fights set amongst a shanty town.

A PS3 demo will follow soon, Codemasters has promised. Bodycount is set to release in a few weeks for the PS3 and the XBox 360.
