Uforia, an online game publisher specializing in massively multiplayer online games today announced its plans to publish the free-to-play, online military first person shooter, Mercenary Wars. Developed by NM Productions, Mercenary Wars is the next-generation of first person shooter games with its unique customization features and innovative stat system. Mercenary Wars is scheduled for launch in September 2009.

Unlike other first person shooter games available today, Mercenary Wars features a unique stat system that players can use to upgrade and customize their lifelike characters. The combat in the game is designed to feel very realistic, while also allowing players to adjust their speed, accuracy, and health stats. Mercenary Wars is set in the not so distant future in a world where order and society as we know them are a thing of the past. The economies of the world have crashed and have been replaced with total chaos. New alliances have been forged and the world is now controlled by well-trained groups of mercenaries. Players must determine who to swear their allegiance to and fight side-by-side to the death, if necessary, in the quest to ensure becoming the new global powerhouse.

“We’re excited to be working on Mercenary Wars with NM Productions”, said JK Kim , CEO of Uforia. “Mercenary Wars is going to bring a whole new level of intense, in-depth play to FPS fans and is an exciting new addition to our current portfolio of MMORPGs.”
