'Brothers In Arms 3: Sons of War' will finally be released in December

You may remember that back at CES 2014 in January, we got a live demo of Brothers In Arms 3: Sons of War from the folks at Gameloft. At the time, the World War II-themed game was supposed to be released later that quarter. That date came and went with no such launch but this week Gameloft has confirmed that Brothers In Arms 3 will finally be released later in December for Windows Phone and other platforms.

Gameloft has also released a new trailer for the game, based on the popular Gearbox Software franchise. Originally, Brothers In Arms 3 was supposed to be an on-rails, third-person squad shooter but now it will allow the player to freely move their character, which might explain the delay in the game's launch. There will be 12 "brothers" to pick from in the game, each with their own special abilities.

The trailer looks very cool so hopefully the long wait will be worth it.
