A US company plans to launch a computer game featuring graphic video footage captured by US troops during the Iraq war.
Kuma Reality Games will reportedly introduce Kuma War next February.
The Media Guardiansays the game will feature licensed frontline footage from ITN, Reuters and Associated Press.
Kuma Reality Games says it'll bring out its game next February, after securing an arrangement with the US Department of Defence to obtain footage from US troops.
Kuma War will enable players to go on recreated missions such as the raid that killed Saddam Hussein's two sons, Uday and Qusay, complete with the exact munitions involved in the raid. Each mission will be introduced by a TV-style broadcast featuring the licensed war footage.
The footage will be used to produce the introductions, where an anchor presents each mission in the style of a CNN or Fox News bulletin. The first edition of the game will feature video footage from Iraq, Afghanistan and Liberia.
Kuma Reality Games' chief executive, Keith Halper, told the Hollywood Reporter: "We have crash teams here, just like TV news, and we have the technology tools that allow us to recreate occurrences in vivid, accurate detail."
