 Ubisoft recently announced that Funatics Software is working on a DS version of Tom Clancy's EndWar to be released on November 4. A version of the anticipated console strategy game, EndWar takes place during a fictitious World War III during which players control one of three factions in three interwoven single-player campaigns with over thirty missions.    

Tom Clancy's EndWar also features two-player multiplayer with content designed specifically for multiplayer mode, in addition to a mission editor that can be used in single player and multiplayer mode. Regrettably, it will not feature the innovative voice commands that the console versions contain.    

UBISOFT® ANNOUNCES TOM CLANCY'S ENDWAR™ FOR HANDHELDS    

SAN FRANCISCO – OCTOBER XX, 2008 – Today Ubisoft announced that Tom Clancy's EndWar™ will be released for the Nintendo DS™ system and the PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system. Developed by Funatics Software and optimized for the handheld platforms, Tom Clancy's EndWar is rated T for "teen" and will ship to retailers on November 4, 2008.    

Tom Clancy's EndWar for handhelds allows players to command an elite military force on the ground, in the air and on the seas during World War III. Take control of the elite U.S. Joint Strike Force, European Enforcers Corps or Russian Spetsnaz Guards Brigade and lead your faction to victory in three separate yet interwoven single-player campaigns. Each campaign includes over 30 battle scenarios taking place on real-world battlefields including Paris and London, and features increasingly challenging missions and objectives. Fight against a friend in tense two-player battles in any of the 100 ready-to-play scenarios or in your own custom-created missions.    

Key Features:  

 
• Turn-based strategy with a twist: Simultaneous move and attack phases make the experience as intense and authentic as real-time strategy.
 
• Three campaigns, one for each faction, with increasingly challenging battle scenarios and objectives.
 
• Over 20 units and vehicles per faction including ground, air and naval units. Units gain experience in combat, dramatically improving their combat performance.
 
• Two-player versus multiplayer mode, including additional missions specifically designed for multiplayer battles.
 
• Easy-to-pick-up mission editor: Create and share your custom battlefields and battle scenarios to play solo or against another player.
 
• Full stylus control on Nintendo DS.

What, US, Europe and Russia but no China?

I'd probably care more if this wasn't branded "Tom Clancy's"...

I'd care more if they were doing full voice command for the DS, a platform where it should be totally feasible.

"Full voice command" just means you repeatedly scream the same things into the mic until the game either finally recognizes what you said or you lose the game, the latter being more common.
