respective squads
in combat.[edit] Future
On 18 June 2009 Gearbox Software applied to the United States Patent and Trademark Office for 4 trademarks with a "War Hero" suffix, "Brothers in Arms War Hero" being one of them.[6][7] On 25 June Gearbox's president Randy Pitchford confirmed that the company was interested in developing a "War Hero" game in the unspecified future, however he added that there was no publisher signed to the project and the company was not ready to talk about it publicly.[8]A new game titled Brothers In Arms: Savage 7 has been sighted for sale on the website of British retailer Gamestation.[9] Although the game has not been officially announced by Gearbox, the sales date of 'late 2011' suggests a release in the not too distant future. However, the link now directs to the page for Furious 4.
