Montreal, Canada. June 22nd, 2007. Software publisher Strategy First Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Silverstar Holdings, Ltd. (Nasdaq: SSTR), and the developer Digital Fusion Inc, are happy to announce the signing of "Panzer Killer." The WWII tank arcade game is due to be released in stores across North America August 28th, 2007.
"We are very happy to be publishing 'Panzer Killer' with Strategy First. This title will be a great addition to their games and will bring a new approach to the typical arcade game. Panzer Killer does a good job to breach the gap between realism and fun. It not only looks real in terms of historically accurate armor, weapons and locations, but it's just concentrated combat. No need to get lost looking for trouble, cause in Panzer Killer, trouble always finds you," says Pepe Moreno, developer and producer of Panzer Killer.
"We are very happy to be working with Digital Fusion on this project. This is a fun and exciting arcade tank game. It is exhilarating to roll over and blow up everything and at the same time it is a tactical challenge to stay alive," says Brock Beaubien, producer for Strategy First.
"Panzer Killer" will be in stores across North America August 28th, 2007, at the retail price of $19.99.

About Panzer Killer
As the Allied forces broke out of the Normandy beaches and the battle for France began, American tank crews soon came to realize what they were up against. To their dismay and horror, the American Sherman tank-crews quickly found out how inadequate and inferior their tanks were, especially against Germany's late model tanks. They were drastically out-gunned and out-armored by the far superior German tanks. On the other hand, the American tanks were faster, more maneuverable and far more reliable. The Allies had a greater number of tanks, very effective artillery and total air superiority. German columns were constantly harassed from the air as American Thunderbolts and British Typhoons rained horror upon them.
Fight everything in the German arsenal including the most notorious and lethal tanks such as Tigers and Panthers. Battle through over 50 missions in a fast paced arcade-style shooter. Drive and fight rival tanks, destroy enemy positions and engage in ferocious firefights.
