BlackLight: Tango Down

BlackLight: Tango Down

 Written by John Scalzo  on July 06, 2010

News: First person shooter mixes Blade Runner and Call of Duty.



Ignition and developer Zombie Studios have announced that BlackLight: Tango Down will be available to download through the Xbox Live Arcade tomorrow. The game will be priced at 1200 Microsoft Points ($15). Ignition has also said they plan to add BlackLight to the PlayStation Store and PC download services in "the coming weeks."

Zombie Studios has described the game as "one part Blade Runner and one part Call of Duty" with a storyline that takes place 25 years into the future:

The player takes control of an elite covert ops team that is sent after missing American Colonel Klein and his personal BlackLight team. The game will feature four single player/co-op levels that support up to four players at once, 12 multiplayer maps, seven game types and literally millions of weapons customization combinations. As the team advances through regions that consist of old world architecture over laden with ubiquitous modern holographic advertising, the trigger based dynamic AI offers an intense and varied experience every time the game is played.


In addition to a story that's both futuristic and contemporary, BlackLight will also include a variety of real world weaponry and a heads-up display known as the Hyper Reality Visor, which is based on current military technology:

In BlackLight: Tango Down, players are equipped with high-tech, futuristic gear that makes combat fascinating and surreal. Its weapon customization system allows for trillions of different configurations that deliver unlimited adaptability and variety of gameplay. Each player is also equipped with a Hyper Reality Visor (HRV), an advanced imaging system in the player's Heads up Display that detects nearby enemy and friendly forces and relays the information back to players, giving them immediate battlefield intelligence.


Ignition plans to expand the BlackLight universe beyond video games with plans for a feature film (which will be distributed by 20th Century Fox), a novel and a comic book series.

We'll have more on the BlackLight series soon.
