NEW YORK – August 24, 2010 – Developer
VSTEP today announced details of its Greenpeace campaign for the
soon to be released, Ship Simulator Extremes. The Greenpeace
campaign is one of three realistic campaigns featured in the game.
In this campaign, players can sail actual Greenpeace vessels like
the Esperanza as they confront oil dumping ships, track down
illegal toxic waste dumping and save the whales from whale hunter
vessels. Take the rudder of the Rainbow Warrior III a full year
before its actual completion. After successfully completing any of
the nine historical Greenpeace missions, enjoy full motion
documentary footage and interviews with Greenpeace Captain Pete
Wilcox as part of your reward.
