SECTION 8 BETA BURNING INTO EUROPE

TimeGate’s Futuristic Multiplayer FPS
LEICESTER, MAY 1ST – SouthPeak Interactive Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board:
SOPK; SOPKU; SOPKW; SOPKZ) is pleased to announce that the 8th Armoured
Infantry is launching its recruitment drive across Europe. Potential troopers can visit
www.JoinSection8.com to register their interest and enlist for the Section 8 beta on PC,
which is taking place over the summer.
Developed by TimeGate Studios, Section 8 is an intense first-person shooter that gives
players unprecedented strategic control over the battlefield, employing tactical assets
and on-demand vehicle deliveries to dynamically alter the flow of combat. Set in the
distant future when humanity is facing a growing insurrection among its colonies, Earth
dispatches the elite 8th Armoured Infantry to turn the tide.
Utilizing advanced powered armour suits, these volunteers are the only ones crazy
enough to smash through enemy defences and drop directly into the battlefield from
15,000 feet. Their bravery earned them the nickname “Section 8”, an old military
regulation where soldiers were classed as unfit for duty due to mental instability.
Now volunteers in Europe can sign up for the Section 8 beta at www.JoinSection8.com.
With only a limited number of places available, those drafted over the coming months
will be loaded up and sent out to the frontline. JoinSection8.com also contains vital intel
about the game and is the place to stay active within the Section 8 community.
Section 8 is due for release on PC and the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment
system from Microsoft® later this year.
