Close Combat: Red Phoenix

Close Combat: Red Phoenix is a cancelled Xbox and PC game by Atomic Games. It was to be loosely based on the novel Red Phoenix by Larry Bond.

Plot
Since it was loosely based on the book, it probably had a similar plot. As such it would have been set in Korea during the Korea War.

Gameplay
It was to be a real time tactics game in the Close Combat franchise.

Development
The dev team worked with active US Marines for the most authentic gameplay. As such the game was intended to be used by the United States Marine Corps for training.

Cancellation
The game was cancelled shortly after Atomic Games was acquired by Destineer. The other game in product, Close Combat: First to Fight, was focused on instead.
