 | | Resistance 2 transports players across the Atlantic to a besieged 1950s America where it builds on
Fall of Man’s legacy. There will be bigger battles, spectacular landscapes and an even more gripping
narrative told from Hale’s perspective – alongside an unprecedented online eight-player co-operative
mode in which players meet to tackle specially-designed campaigns together.
The Resistance story continues to unfurl with protagonist Sergeant Nathan Hale. Having destroyed the
London command centre of the invading alien Chimera, Hale returns to the United States where he
becomes part of a special programme known as the Sentinels – a secret weapon against the Chimera
assault that the US government knows is imminent. When the Chimera launch a full-scale aerial assault
on both coasts, Hale and the Sentinels find themselves in the forefront of the counter-attack.
The game’s multiplayer modes are also set to make a huge impact in the gaming world. Co-operative
play, where players team up to tackle a campaign, can often feel constrained in levels designed for
single players. Not so with Resistance 2, where squads can undertake a fully independent online
campaign built specifically for co-operative play – a feature that demonstrates developer Insomniac
Games’ commitment to online gaming. The large scale battles are combined with levels that are
designed to be slightly different each time you play. Up to eight players can join forces to face
the Chimera together while choosing from three distinct class types. Players can also look forward
to vast 60-person online battles in which players join squads with distinct battlefield objectives
and fight it out on PLAYSTATION Network, the home of multiplayer online play. The combination of
squad objectives and large player-count will give Resistance 2 the perfect blend of epic battlefield
chaos and intimate close-quarters combat.
