Hitting all major console platforms, as well as the PC, Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising is currently in development over at Codemasters. It has a vague 2009 release date, but we estimate that'll change to some time during early 2010 (probably).

As we've reported during last year's E3 "the game puts players right smack in the middle of a conflict between the US and China. You'll be fighting on a fictional island in the Pacific Ocean and from what we've learned it's going to have plenty of wide, open spaces for combat. The developers are, above all, devoted to creating a down-to-earth combat sim and that relates to nearly every aspect of the game, from weapons and vehicles to the environment and characters that traverse through it. They've specified that the game contains 70 different weapons, 50 highly detailed vehicles, while the island itself stretches across 130 square miles of dynamic and meticulously created landscape."
