There’ll be ”thousands of characters on screen” for us to blow up. The 16-player multiplayer is pure ”insanity, chaos and great fun.” We hope so!
”During the day you’ve got to battle against The Cell, which is the remnants of the gangs and civilians who have joined together against The Agency. So you’ve got quite a formidable set of adversaries with thousands of characters on screen for you to mow over or eradicate which ever way you see fit,” producer Peter Connelly told GameTrailers.
”You’ve a bigger uber-mission and more of a focus in terms of the mission structure… We like to think of Crackdown 2 as very much a toy box for people to experience and play with. And we’ve given them more toys to use in that toy box this time round.”
”We’ve also greatly enhanced it with four player co-op, so that’s twice the trouble and twice the fun that we had last time. Then we’ve got the 16-player multiplayer… which is insanity, chaos and great fun.”
Connelly has said that Crackdown 2’s release date is July 6th, after it gets a royal showing at E3 in June. Did you enjoy the original Crackdown? See the interview below.
