R.U.S.E. has a release date of February 2, 2010 and will be released for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC.

R.U.S.E. promises a very unique spin on the real-time strategy genre by giving a boardgame-style approach to the RTS, which allows users to bluff their opponents and completely control their view of the action. The viewpoint can be shifted seamlessly from the heart of the battlefield to the full theater of war.

It also has a highly stylized presentation that is both artistically and visually pleasing while also being easy to use and offering lots of depth tactically.

The whole idea behind the game is to make the player literally feel like a general moving the pieces on the battlefield into their positions, as if you were playing a boardgame that was real. The “pieces” on the field literally go from being icons to morphing before your eyes into actual gears of war. The game also has a full online multiplayer support.

Here is a trailer for the game.

Key features of R.U.S.E. include:
