Nokia’s debut first-party game, Pathway to Glory has been released just in time for Christmas. The promising RTS game sees players creating and controlling their own platoon of soldiers to complete historically accurate missions and engage in hybrid real-time battle with other gamers from around the world. You’ll be able to either connect to collaborate and compete in a Global Battle Ground via the N-Gage Arena, or set up a local multiplayer game with up to six other players via Bluetooth wireless technology.

“Pathway to Glory is an excellent example of what kind of games are possible when you take full advantage of all the features of the N-Gage platform,” said Pasi Pölönen, Director of Game Publishing, Games Business Unit, Nokia. “The unique game features of Pathway to Glory, like the need for collaboration, in-game communication system, persistent damage during campaigns and the global rank system, create a fantastically compelling game that will delight gamers worldwide.”

Pathway to Glory features more than 800 different sprites for richly detailed graphics, 100 in-game illustrations and voice acting in 13 unique in-game languages. Players can control platoons of soldiers from 11 different countries, including the United States, Britain, France, Canada, Poland and more.

The game contains a storyline campaign with 14 solo-player missions that are also playable co-operatively for up to four players via Bluetooth wireless technology. The unique Mobile Community Warfare game mode consists of 12 multiplayer missions and four different campaigns, both playable by six players in the Local Battle Ground via Bluetooth or Global Battle Ground via the N-Gage Arena. In addition, all the levels are playable via a Hot Seat system that allows players to share one N-Gage device with friends but still play a multiplayer game against each other.
