Prototype 2 "still coming on July 24th as planned" to PC

Radical Entertainment has been hit with significant layoffs after the studio’s Prototype 2 didn’t meet Activision’s commercial expectations for the franchise, and so the IP is effectively dead.

However Radical have reassured PC fans still awaiting Prototype 2 that it is ”indeed, still coming” this July 24th. The Blacklight virus ”didn’t spread as far as it could,” lamented its creator.

”Thanks again to everyone for the outpouring of support. Just a reminder that the PC version of PROTOTYPE 2 is indeed, still coming on July 24th as planned,” said Radical.

Prototype 2 released on Xbox 360 and PS3 back in April, but the PC version was pushed back until the 24th of this month. The sequel stars an all-new protagonist as we face off against our old player character Mercer in a fractured New York Zero. Also introduced was Radnet, offering weekly challenges and abilities.
