For those of us that remember and loved the Resistance 2 multiplayer co-op, get ready to meet Insomniacs latest game release Fuse. The story is about overstrike, a team of elite combat soldiers working with the CIA who get a hold of alien technology they were never suppose to have.
The technology is Fuse a highly volatile substance that uses subatomic resonance to merge with other chemicals. This material was later harnessed to create prototype weapons used by the overstrike team. Your objective is to stop a global arms race from getting out of control.
Fuse is a four person multiplayer which requires teamwork in
order to survive. Each player has a special weapon comparable to weapons class
that he or she will need to master. The weapons are one of the better parts of
the game because you can connect different combinations that have some
devastating effects. The LEAP feature in this game will allow you to switch up
your class weapons in game as you need.
We will see a few familiar things from the past like the
return of heavy class enemies and a crushing wave of enemy combat units
over-running your position. Insomniac
worked hard at getting the balance right between giving players a difficult
experience and not making the co-op to easy but with enough team work you
should be able to get the job done.
On a personal note, a big shout out to Insomniac Games for adding
female characters into the game as we have seen before in the past with Sgt Sara
Parker in Resistance 2.
Overstrike 9 team will include Izzy Sinclair a hacker and intelligence broker
who can revive players from a long distance.
Fuse is set to release May 28th 2013 for PS3 and
Xbox 360 and is a must have for Resistance fans.
