Fans of Operation Flashpoint will be pleased to note that a sequel to the popular military shooter has been announced.

With Codemasters' biggest development team ever assembled and over two years of closed set pre-production, Operation Flashpoint looks on track for a 2008 release date. Like the previous game, Operation Flashpoint 2 will bring realistic combat scenarios of modern warfare which allow players to take on a variety of roles, bringing the intense feeling of the battlefield straight to your PC.

Further details on this highly anticipated project will be revealed later this year. Gamers are invited to sign up for future development briefings at the official Operation Flashpoint 2 website.
