The sequel to Radical Entertainment’s best-selling open-world game of
2009, PROTOTYPE 2 takes the unsurpassed carnage of the original PROTOTYPE and
continues the experience of becoming the ultimate shape-shifting weapon. As the
game’s all-new infected protagonist, Sgt. James Heller, players will cut a
bloody swathe through the wastelands of post-viral New York Zero (or more
simply…NYZ) with unparalleled locomotion, building up a vast genetic arsenal
of deadly, biological weapons and abilities as they hunt, kill and consume their
way toward the ultimate goal – to kill…Alex…Mercer!
14 months have passed since New York became a disease-ridden war zone, and
the man responsible for it all – Alex Mercer – has become a ghost, a
bogeyman whose shadow looms over the city. You are Sgt. James Heller –
veteran soldier whose life was destroyed by Mercer’s release of the
Blacklight virus. With his wife and daughter casualties of the outbreak, Heller
now serves in the military effort to keep the virus from spilling over beyond
NYZ. Repeatedly volunteering for the most dangerous, near suicidal missions into
the heart of the city’s Red Zone, Heller is hoping to die and take as many
Infected with him as he can in the process. Heller’s last mission sees his
entire unit massacred by a swarm of Infected, leaving him the sole survivor and
putting him face-to-face with the shadowy hooded figure overseeing the ambush
from a nearby rooftop – Alex Mercer – the man responsible for destroying
his family, his city…his life.
Fueled by rage, Heller attacks but is clearly no match for
Mercer’s abilities. Impressed by Heller’s implausible survival of the
Infected onslaught, Mercer sees Heller as a potentially valuable asset for his
grand plan and infects him with the virus, making Heller his prototype.
Welcome to NYZ…it’s time to murder your maker!
Features:
- IT’S HELLER VS. MERCER! – Alex Mercer made a grave mistake when he
decided to infect Sgt. James Heller with the Blacklight virus – he never
counted on Heller interfering with his plans. PROTOTYPE 2 features a fresh
narrative following the game’s new, iconic main character, Sgt. James Heller.
Gamers will experience Heller thriving with his new shape-shifting abilities as
they go head-to-head with Mercer and delve deeper into the game’s story,
uncovering a secret that will rock Heller to his core.
- SHAPE-SHIFTING EVOLVED – Players will love experimenting with
Heller’s newfound powers and abilities as they tear through NYZ, battling and
evading elite military soldiers and vehicles on the ground and in the air, and
hunting down and consuming key targets to obtain information and dive even
deeper into the game’s story. Juggling between multiple shape-shifting
weapons on the fly, like the all-new trauma-inducing Tendrils, the razor sharp
Claws or Blade Arm, and blunt and devastating Hammer and Whip Fists (to name a
few), players will wreak havoc on their victims and the hordes of Infected
abominations roaming the city streets in a visceral celebration of blood, guts
and dismemberment.
- WELCOME TO NYZ! – The New York that humanity has come to know and love
over the years no longer exists…it’s now simply referred to as NYZ. As
Radical’s all-new vision for post-viral open-world New York, NYZ has been
re-designed from the ground up to enhance PROTOTYPE 2’s signature
action-packed sandbox-style gameplay, and as a mechanism to tell the
game’s core narrative and side story missions. As Heller, players will
progress through NYZ’s three distinct zones, from the heavily guarded
militarized Green Zone, to the converted refugee and triage shanty town camps of
the industrial Yellow Zone, all the way to the Red Zone – where the virus has
completely overrun the city’s shattered skyscrapers and population with
infection and the risk of death at every corner.
- MAKE HELLER YOUR PROTOTYPE – In PROTOTYPE 2 players can unlock new viral
abilities, upgrade, and create unique power sets for Heller throughout the
game’s main and side story missions. By exploring all that NYZ’s vast,
open-world has to offer, savvy players may stumble upon Infected Lairs hidden
throughout the city, and will be rewarded with genetic upgrades for Heller upon
surviving the horrors found inside. Additionally, by gaining access to the
Blackwatch’s encrypted computer network – Blacknet – information
regarding key targets associated with top-secret military projects throughout
the city will be revealed. Using Heller’s unique hunting ability, players can
track down and consume these targets to obtain dozens of interchangeable
mutations to mix and match. With so many potential viral load outs, players can
customize Heller’s power set to their liking, making him their
prototype!
