[[America's Army: Rise of a Soldier]] is the title for the [[Xbox]] version that was developed by the [[U.S. Army]], [[Ubisoft]] and [[Secret Level]]. A mobile phone version, published by [[Gameloft]], is also available. An [[arcade]] version using [[light gun]]s is also being developed.

== Training ==
America's Army lacks a main [[single player]] mode, but includes some training scenarios to help the player get used to the various features available in the game and so-called "[[co-op]]" (co-operative) games where players fight a group of NPCs. These are rather poorly programmed, and rely on numbers to try to make co-op games a challenge.
