THQ’s previously announced The Outfit multiplayer demo is now available for free download in the Xbox Live Marketplace. There’s a catch: only those with Gold Live accounts will have access to an 8-player online exercise in destruction. Silver account holders will only be able to play offline in splitscreen mode with one additional player.
Here’s some facts about the demo:
- Name: Estate Assault
- After a coordinated offensive – Allied Command has commandeered a French villa just across the river from the Axis HQ.
- Choose your side (Allies or Axis) and squad leader to play (3 from either side; 6 total) and lead your squad into battle to destroy the enemy’s HQ, while defending your own.
- Capture strategic points located throughout the map to earn Field Units (F.U.s) ” that can be used on the fly to call in Destruction on Demand™ – air-dropped into the action at any time. Everything can be called in from tanks, jeeps and half-tracks to squad reinforcements, machine gun nests, anti-tank guns and even air-strikes on enemy positions.
