“We believe EndWar will revolutionize the strategy genre on consoles and are thrilled gamers will be able to get a little taste of why we are so excited about EndWar’s release this holiday season,” said Tony Key, senior vice president of sales and marketing at Ubisoft. “With its innovative voice command and intuitive game design, fans will be able to learn first hand how a console game was able to win the judges over and win Best Strategy Game of E3 for the first time in a category previously dominated by PC titles.”

The pre-launch VIP demo will feature multiplayer functionality and serve as a final stress test for the online systems of the massive war game, allowing fans to try EndWar’s voice command enabled strategy prior to its release. With only a limited number of slots available for access to the VIP demo, fans that pre-order the game at participating retailers will be given access to a unique token on a first-come first-served basis that will allow them to download the VIP demo from Xbox LIVE Marketplace for Xbox 360.

The Xbox 360 VIP demo of Tom Clancy’s EndWar will begin in early October.

“We’re obviously looking at it. A good strategy game is a good strategy game,” de Plater said.
