Project Stealth - Spy vs Mercenary video game

project stealth video game two soldiers with weaponsProject Stealth team announced the beta release date of “Project Stealth: Spy vs Mercenary.” Project Stealth's public beta will be downloadable for free at the end of August. Project Stealth is our first game based on Unreal Engine 3 technology using Unreal Tournament 3, created by Epic Games, as a basis.
