Sony, on the other hand, changed that. Today, they announced that the title would not be released in May, but on June 7th of this year. They went on to explain many factors of the upcoming game, such as new superpowers, a new fighting system, destructible environments, and being able to have over 100 people on screen at any given time.
They also talked about the story of the game, where the main character, Cole MacGrath, has to face some new entity known as “The Beast” in the city of New Marais. They also went into detail of the game’s morality system, and how the choices the player makes have a direct outcome on the story, leading to two different endings. The sandbox aspect of the game was also described, Sony promising that the city of New Marais would “take the open world genre to new heights.”
inFamous 2 was announced at a retail price of $59.99, with the Hero Edition slated at $99.99. Which version will you be getting? Are you at all curious in regards to this “Beast” that MacGrath is set to fight? Are you looking forward to traversing a new city?
inFamous 2 is set to come out on the PS3 June 7, 2011.
