Take On Helicopters from Bohemia Interactive

By on March 31, 2011

Bohemia Interactive is currently PC gamers’ most beloved company as they earned their trust with the exclusive PC military sim game, ArmA2. Contrary to other developers, Bohemia decided to stick with the PC platform and their next title will be exclusively released to it. The company announced today the development of a brand new helicopter game: Take On Helicopters. Built upon over 10 years of experience, Take On Helicopters immerses players within beautifully rich landscapes and an authentic helicopter experience. Take On Helicopters is scheduled for release in Q4 2011. Teaser trailer after the jump!

In Take On Helicopters, the player takes on the role of a civilian helicopter pilot. Harry Larkin’s aviation business has fallen on tough times. Built up over decades, it’s now only days away from closure. His sons face an uncertain future, struggling to save the company their father spent his whole life building. Together, they must take on contracts and competitors; together, they take on helicopters!

Take On Helicopters will offer:

  • High fidelity flight dynamics modelling
  • Richly modelled helicopters & cockpits
  • Expansive & detailed environments
  • Powerful & intuitive mission editor
  • Multiplayer in co-op & competitive scenarios

Bohemia Interactive´s CEO, Marek Spanel, explains: “Our military simulators from the Arma series have been providing infinite fun and creativity for nearly a decade now. Helicopters were always an important part of our games and we feel it is time to give them some proper polish in a dedicated project. Take On Helicopters is an accessible yet very authentic helicopter game, which challenges players to prove their flight skills in the rich environments of North America and South Asia.”
