Shadow Ops: Red Mercury

AMD announced the first 64-bit game optimized for AMD Athlon 64 processor-based systems, "Shadow Ops: Red Mercury," is available now on retail shelves.

"Shadow Ops: Red Mercury," published by Atari and designed on AMD64 technology, includes specific 64-bit enhancements that enable a richer and more immersive gaming experience.

With the one-two punch of AMD64 processors and "Shadow Ops: Red Mercury," gamers will notice larger and more detailed areas to explore, breakthrough artificial intelligence (AI), and never-before-seen textures that compel players to gawk in amazement.

With time to market being one of the most critical issues facing game developers, Atari leveraged the power of the AMD64 platform to help reduce the development cycle for "Shadow Ops: Red Mercury" from months to weeks. The significant timesavings enabled by 64-bit processing provided Atari a competitive edge in bringing this next-generation game to market.

After purchasing "Shadow Ops: Red Mercury," gamers can immediately take advantage of the game by installing a public trial version of Microsoft Windows XP Pro x86 Edition on an AMD64 platform and installing relevant 64-bit drivers.
