Without Warning is a technological thriller set in the campus of a large chemical factory, which has been seized by a fanatical organization. Commanding a selection of six diverse heroes, players must infiltrate the Peterson-Davis Chemicals compound, assist any civilian employees they encounter, and ultimately, neutralize the eco-terrorist threat. In addition to combat and stealth objectives, challenges include exploration, puzzle-solving, hostage protection, and a number of plot-related mini-games.

The six key characters include three military operatives: a veteran squad leader, an unproven rookie, and a bomb disposal specialist. The three civilian heroes are a frightened Peterson-Davis secretary, a security guard who escaped the terrorists' initial raid, and a TV news cameraman whose helicopter is shot down while covering the complex.

Not unlike the contemporarily popular television series, 24, Without Warning involves different characters taking actions and influencing the plot at the same virtual time. The game's "Timeline" features allow players to take the roles of each of the six main heroes in turn, ensuring that each agent completes his part of the job before time runs out for everyone. As one operative reaches a critical, suspenseful point in his part of the plotline, the focus may switch to another character, so gamers can experience each part of the developing story first-hand.

STORY:
The story begins with a Special Forces unit being briefed on a terrorist takeover of a chemical plant, led by a man known as Derbec. The Special Forces unit, consisting of veteran Kyle Rivers, rookie Jack Hooper, bomb expert Ed Reagan, and two others, soon prepares to infiltrate the plant. Elsewhere, news cameraman Ben Harrison begins to head to the chemical plant as well, via helicopter.

Inside the plant, secretary Tanya Shaw and security guard Dave Wilson quickly comprehend the situation, both managing to evade the terrorists before they can kill them or take them as hostages. Upon reaching the chemical plant, the two minor Special Forces members are killed in a terrorist ambush, and the remaining three are separated from each other. They quickly continue forward through the plant.

* Third-person shooter takes place in a terrorist-seized chemical plant
* Play as six different characters throughout a 12-hour siege
* Game automatically switches perspectives as time goes on
* Play as a three-man covert ops team, a secretary, a cameraman, and a security guard
