It looks like Ubisoft is taking the route EA took with their Battlefield Bad Company series. But this brothers in arms game is probably one to skip.
London, UK – June 6, 2011 – Today, during its press conference at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), Ubisoft ® unveiled the development of Brothers in Arms Furious 4™. Developed by Gearbox™ Software and published by Ubisoft, Brothers in Arms Furious 4 is the latest iteration of the best-selling Brothers in Arms ® franchise, spinning the series in a new direction. The game will be available worldwide for the Xbox 360 ® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft ®, the Sony ® PlayStation ® 3 computer entertainment system and Windows ® PC in the first half of calendar year 2012.
Set in World War II, Brothers in Arms Furious 4 is a brutal first person shooter that offers an exciting campaign mode playable with up to four players in co-op, as well as an extensive competitive multiplayer mode. The story follows four fierce and fearless warriors tracking the Führer himself. As one of the Furious 4, players will use special weaponry and unexpected combat abilities to fight the greatest threat the world has ever faced: an experimental Nazi army conceived in secret by the Third Reich.
“The Brothers in Arms franchise has been renowned for its gritty direction that has dropped players into the middle of World War II,” said Adam Novickas, U.S. director of marketing at Ubisoft. “With Brothers in Arms Furious 4, Gearbox brings the action to a whole new level filled with unexpected twists and over-the-top battles that are sure to please new players and fans alike.”

Hardly any game company is making WWII games and Ubisoft is making a gutsy move by releasing this game. If anything I would say this is a mixture of Brothers in Arms and Bad Company. There's a lot of shooting but is the fun factor there? I guess well just have to wait and see but this is a game I am sure to skip just by looking at the trailer.
