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.
Alternate Titles
- "Venom. Codename: Outbreak" -- Russian title
- "Venom" -- Developing Name

Trivia
After the completion of Codename: Outbreak, the GSC Gameworld guys split up... some of them left the company to form Deep Shadows - a new developer, working on the rpg-shooter Xenus right now (dec.2002)... those who stayed at GSC program STALKER: Oblivion Lost, another rpg-shooter. Stalker and Xenus are impressively comparable... ;)
