The Line is a third-person shooter video game developed by Yager Development and published by 2K Games. The game was released in North America for the Microsoft Windows, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 platforms on June 26, 2012 in North America and on June 29, 2012 in Europe. Although in the Spec Ops series, The Line does not take any story elements from previous titles. The game follows Captain Martin Walker (voiced by Nolan North) as he is sent into a post-catastrophe Dubai with an elite Delta Force team to hunt for a decorated officer named Colonel Konrad (voiced by Bruce Boxleitner), as well as evacuate any survivors. While lead writer Walt Williams has stated that there are many influences that have gone into the plot, the premise is inspired by Joseph Conrad’s novella Heart of Darkness. Multiple critics have positively observed similarities to Apocalypse Now, a Vietnam War era adaptation of Heart of Darkness, in the game’s feel and expression of no glory in war.
