In Project: Snowblind gamers will be exposed to a multitude of gadgetry and
weaponry befitting a 21st century super soldier. Nathan's arsenal of tools will
include items such as riot walls (deployable energy shields), spiderbots, ice
picks (used specifically for hacking), cloaking shields, etc. His weapons
chest includes a host of new and futuristic weapons such as the Flechette gun
and Rail Laser to name a few as well as tried and true favorites of the FPS
genre such as a Shot Gun and Rocket Launcher.

options in terms of weapons, gadgets and augmented abilities. It is up to you
to combine them to your imagination's content," says John Chowanec Producer for
Project: Snowblind. "Given the battlefield chaos in Project: Snowblind, we're
arming you with a sandbox within which you can play out some of your most
