Last Friday Chuck Lacson, Associate Product Marketing Manager for SCEA, announced that inFAMOUS 2 will be launching in North America exclusively on the PlayStation 3 on June 7th, 2011.
The inFAMOUS 2 HERO Edition was also revealed, including the $99 suggested price tag.
The HERO Edition delivers everything an inFamous fan could want including a highly detailed 8.5” Cole MacGrath statue, a sportable sling pack modeled after Cole’s own in-game gear, the inFAMOUS #1 mini comic from DC Comics, the official inFAMOUS 2 HERO Edition Soundtrack and a super voucher code for a collection of in-game content.
Pre-order goodies will include:
24K GOLD AMP - Cole’s nasty new weapon definitely delivers the pain, but when you pre-order at Amazon.com you can get a gold (in-game) version to dish it out in style
KESSLER SKIN - Experience inFAMOUS 2 as Cole’s super-powered nemesis from the first inFAMOUS story if you pre-order from Best Buy.
LIGHTNING HOOK - GameStop fans can unlock this special power with their pre-order, an electro-kinetic tether that lets you snare and pull enemies and objects towards Cole.
ELECTROCUTION GRENADE - Visit Walmart and pre-order to get powerful grenade that ties enemies down with arcing electricity before going BOOM.
DIGITAL SOUNDTRACK - Blending the funk and jazz of New Orleans’ own Galactic, with the rock sounds of Bryan “Brain” Mantia (Primus & Guns and Roses), we’ve created a soundtrack that is pure inFAMOUS 2. Music lovers can download this special soundtrack if they pre-order from participating retailers.
