LucasArts and Day 1 Studios on Wednesday unveiled “Fracture,” a new shooter game for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in which environmental devastation has split the United States into two warring halves. Set in the year 2161, “Fracture” puts players in the role of Mason Briggs, a demolitions expert fighting for the Atlantic Alliance, which relies upon cybernetic enhancement for its survival. The other side, known as the “Pacifican army,” uses genetically enhanced soldiers — a method the Atlantic Alliance finds morally reprehensible — in its efforts to win.
