Ubisoft has announced their next game at GDC ‘09, a real time strategy game called R.U.S.E. (first H.A.W.X. now this? What’s with the names?). The game has a cool “tabletop” feel to it as you can see in the image above. The game is being developed by Eugen Systems and is set to be available in the fiscal 2009/2010 year for the PC, Xbox 360, and Playstation 3.

“R.U.S.E. is a one-of-a-kind real-time strategy game that allows players to bluff their enemies to lead their nation to victory, controlling the action using views that range seamlessly from the heart of the battlefield to the full theatre of war. Players will be plunged into the action thanks to the exclusive IRISZOOMTM Engine which offers an intuitive interface that allows for smooth, rapid transitions from a birds-eye view of the entire conflict, down into the heat of the battle and vice versa.”

We look forward to hearing (and hopefully seeing) more about this interesting twist on the RTS genre, as well as if it will take advantage of the simplistic control style as Halo Wars did, in the upcoming months.
