The Island announced

Akella and developer STEP Creative Group have announced The Island: The Earthling, based on the Strugatsky brothers' book, Inhabitated Island:

"This is the age of mankind’s prosperity. FSG Pilots (Free Search Group) are exploring the universe. Our Hero – Maksim Kammerer – is forced to perform an emergency landing on the planet Sarkash, where, a few minutes after, his ship is destroyed and he becomes a prisoner on the unknown planet.

It turns out that there is human civilization on this planet. Its level of development is much like the level of our civilization in the 20th century. A protracted nuclear war almost completely destroyed the planet’s ecology, and the surviving population still suffers. Their painfully obtained peace remains very unstable and a loathsome truth is hidden behind it. Maksim Kammerer must break through a veil of lies to find out what it is."

The Island: The Earthling will be a panoramic first person adventure and will feature up to 100 locations, photorealistic graphics, and 10 episodes. It has a planned release date for late 2006 (Q3).
