It's a big day for NCSoft and NetDevil as Auto Assault has now officially launched to the public here in Europe and across the pond in North America.

Auto Assault is available at retailers throughout Europe at a suggested retail price of £29.99 / €44.99. The jam-packed Collector's Edition, which includes a headset to utilise the game's voice chat system, will be available for a suggested retail price of £44.99 / €64.99. Both the Standard and Collector's Editions of the game include the first 30 days online game play after which players will be charged a monthly subscription fee of £8.99 / €12.99, with discounts available to long-term subscribers.

The release of Auto Assault represents both a continuation of NCsoft's efforts to provide gamers many compelling products to play online, and the beginning of another great service with free content updates and expansions in the years to come. Additionally, a veteran rewards program has been put in place for players who subscribe to Auto Assault within the first thirty days of service. A detailed description of the veteran rewards is available on the Auto Assault website.

"Auto Assault is like no other game out there," said Geoff Heath, CEO of NCsoft Europe. "Easy to pick up and play in short bursts but equally easy to lose yourself in for long periods of time, it offers a completely unique experience that brings together the fast-paced nature of action games with the sense of progression from traditional role-playing games."

"Compelling characters, tricked-out vehicles, crazy-fast combat and full-blown destruction make Auto Assault a blast," said Scott Brown, president of NetDevil, LTD. "This is the game we've wanted to play for years; it feels good to launch commercial service. Now the real work starts – today marks the beginning of our ideas for the product and we look forward to rolling out new content for players to enjoy."

In Auto Assault, players choose from three races and venture into a post-apocalyptic Earth wreaking havoc and vying for control over the few resources left. Players can design their characters and customise many different vehicle chassis to make their own unique fleet of death machines. Players may go on missions with others or on their own, craft unique items, and participate in player-versus-player combat via the arena system and contested outpost battles. No matter what they are doing, players are encouraged to interact with the game world by blasting through buildings, leveling towns and destroying just about everything they see.
