About this game

Kill Switch is an action shooter centered on Nick Bishop, a super-soldier controlled through a direct neural connection by a man known as Controller. Under orders from Archer, Controller sends Bishop on combat missions intended to provoke the North and the West into war.

As Bishop’s suppressed memories begin to surface, Controller struggles to maintain control. When a woman known as Duchess takes over Bishop before he can launch a biological warhead, Bishop turns against the operation and fights to recover his past. His memories reveal the personal cost of Archer’s plans, leading to a final assault against the man behind the conspiracy.

Released on October 28, 2003, the game was developed by Namco, Namco Hometek, and Visual Impact. It was published by Destination Software, Namco, and Sony for Microsoft Xbox, Nintendo Game Boy Advance, PC (Microsoft Windows), and PlayStation 2.
