Description

Protect America and freedom from enemy forces in urban and rural warfare throughout the world in SOCOM 3: U.S. Navy SEALs, exclusively for the PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system. SOCOM 3 builds on the strengths of the multimillion-selling franchise to firmly establish both single-player and multiplayer as equally outstanding game experiences. Created in association with the U.S. Naval Special Warfare Command, SOCOM 3 is as close as you can get to being a Navy SEAL on PlayStation 2.

Explore three new Areas of Operation (AO): Morocco, Poland, and South Asia. Streaming environment technology allows gameplay maps to be five to six times larger than in SOCOM II: U.S. NAVY SEALs. In addition, multiple save points eliminate having to replay a failed mission from the beginning, allowing for seamless progression through the plotline.

For the first time in the SOCOM series, land and water vehicles play a central role in the gameplay experience. Vehicles are drivable by both players and AI and cover a range of military and civilian vehicles including tactical turret-equipped pickups, the SEAL-team configured military Humvee and SOC-R Assault Boat.

The innovative new weapon customization system in SOCOM 3 allows players to use more than 30 different weapons and 20 attachments, resulting in nearly1,000 different weapon combinations.
