Echelon is a futuristic flight combat game that puts the player in white-knuckle combat over lush alien landscapes and towering cities as a member of an elite fighting force facing a revolution on a colonial outpost. Featuring several branching campaigns and a well-wrought storyline, the player will have the ability to advance from Lieutenant to Commander during his/her battles and assume greater control over how each mission plays out. The broad range of selectable player craft include various flight models - plane, helicopter, and gravity-defying, futuristic hovercraft - allowing for variety and challenge throughout the missions. Echelon will be available in retail stores throughout North America in March. Here are a few recently released screenshots of the game:
