WWII doc to use in-game Brother in Arms footage

On Sunday, December 18, the History Channel will premiere Brother in Arms, a WWII documentary that will feature in-game footage from Ubisoft's video game series of the same name. The Brother in Arms games, developed by Gearbox, will be used to tell the story of the 101st Airborne, 502nd Parachute Infantry's involvement in the Normandy Invasion. The History Channel is no stranger to using video games to enhance its programs, having used the Rome: Total War engine to depict historical battles between the Greek and Roman armies in 2004's Decisive Battles.
