Description

After a comet hit Planet Earth, mankind has a big problem: with the comet came alien parasites which turned humans into zombielike creatures. You are a member of a special forces team and you are ordered to do away with the alien scum. Another team member will help you on your way.

Codename: Outbreak is the typical 3D shooter: bogus story, many weapons, 14 large maps to explore and you'll need to shoot down everything that moves. Of course, you have some missions to complete. The manual states that C:O is designed after "real-life special forces operations" :)

Of course it's possible to play against your friends on LAN/Internet, too.
