Undercover: Operation Wintersun now shipping

Months after its release in Germany, many gamers were wondering if Undercover: Operation Wintersun would ever see the light of day outside of Germany. That day has finally arrived as Lighthouse and dtp/Anaconda have announced that the game is now shipping to retail stores in North America and Europe.

Set during WWII, the third-person point-and-click adventure casts players in the role of Dr. John Russell. The nuclear physicist is asked to become a spy by the British Secret Service, using his knowledge to prevent the production of a nuclear missile by the Third Reich. You'll soon find yourself in places like London, Berlin and Stalingrad where your wits as a spy will be put to the test.

As you're waiting for the game to come to a store near you, be sure to check out our hands-on preview or visit the official website. And until September 8th, you could even win a free copy of the game or other great prizes in our Undercover giveaway.
