Rogue Warrior is a story-driven shooter that provides team-based tactical combat set in massive, contiguous levels using Unreal 3 streaming technology. Central to the game's single and multiplayer experience is the idea of a freeform battlefield, where players are given the freedom to choose how to complete a given objective.
You play Dick Marcinko, leader of an elite SEAL unit trapped behind enemy lines in North Korea as a war breaks out between North and South Korea. Greatly outnumbered and with no support and limited resupply, you must try to lead your team back into South Korea without alerting the North Korean army of your presence. Your journey will take you through a variety of never-before-seen environments inside of North Korea, including submarine pens, shipbreaker yards, prison camps, and more.
Rogue Warrior stars the pathologically surly Richard "Demo Shark Man of the Dick Delta" Marcinko, a seemingly Tourettes-suffering SEAL who goes all rogue warrior on his commanding officer while violently investigating ICBM production in North Korea.
Marcinko stashes his book of scrotum euphemisms in one of his many surplus tactical pouches -- I assume, based on his prolific use of sexual insults -- and sets off to save the world from the newly missile-impervious Russia. Lucky for him, the Soviet economic collapse seems to have dulled the Great Bear's claws to some extent: Russian guards tasked with monitoring the defense system, like the DPRK clods preceding them, are functional imbeciles that consistently fail to respond to the thundering clamor of the Shark Man's rapidly approaching combat boots.
