Lost Planet 2 Invading May 11, 2010

Lost Planet 2 (LP2) is the sequel to Capcom's third person shooter from 2007. E.D.N, a snow planet is now covered in lush jungles, windy deserts and industrialized cities 10 years after the arrival of humans, seeking T(thermal)-Energy from the indigenous life forms from the planet called Akrid. LP2 is Capcom's next big action hit this year, with an impressive list of modes and extras that is sure to please fans and action gamers alike. Including a complete 4 player coop mode for the main campaign and a 2 player local splitscreen mode. Not only that, but the game will also feature 16 player online matches.

Customization plays a big role in LP2. Unlike many other shooters players are given freedom of choice, by letting them pick how their characters will look in 4 parts of the body (head, torso, legs, backpack) as well as their load outs for weapons, grenades and support abilities. There will also be a variety taunts available to either praise your allies or piss off your enemies. Interestingly enough, LP2 is one of the few shooters out there that includes a variety of female characters to choose from, developers, take notice!


I'm particularly interested in everything the game has to offer and looking forward to play some good old fashion shooting action against humans and giant Akrid alike. LP2 is scheduled for release this May 11 for XBOX 360 and PLAYSTATION 3.
