SOCOM Confrontation Special Forces  Unveiled
The upcoming May issue of EGM has a blow-out cover story on SOCOM Confrontation and should be arriving in subscribers mailboxes sometime this next week. 1up has posted a correction to the upcoming printed mag.

Along with the loads of other Confrontation info in the story, you’ll find a list of all the different special forces included in the game. Joining a special force is now a perk associated with joining a clan; solo players will still be able to play as either commandos or mercenaries, but special forces (and their associated uniforms, gear, and weapons) will only be available to clan members.

So here, for the first time anywhere the complete, correct lineup of special forces available at launch, complete with links to Wikipedia entries for the real-life organizations.

  • Navy Sea, Air, and Land (SEALs, United States)
  • Special Air Service (SAS, United Kingdom)
  • Kommando Spezialkräfte (KSK, Germany)
  • Unidad de Operaciones Especiales (UOE, Spain)
  • 1er Régiment de Parachutistes d’Infanterie de Marine (1er RPIMa, France)
  • To reiterate, neither Italy’s COMSUBIM nor France’s GIGN will be included in the game… at least not in the initial release. You can get all the other information you need on SOCOM Confrontation when the May issue of EGM begins arriving in subscriber’s mailboxes next week!

    - Thanks EGM & 1up!
