Kane and Lynch: Dead Men is the new action shooter franchise from the creators of the multi-million selling Hitman series. The game will be released later this year for the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.

Kane & Lynch: Dead Men follows the violent and chaotic journey of two men - a flawed mercenary and a medicated psychopath – and their brutal attitude towards right and wrong.

Kane & Lynch: Dead Men looks set to be an emotionally intense crime drama with unflinching action. Io-Interactive's proprietary technology will deliver fluid high definition graphics and lighting, highly destructible environments, massive crowd AI, single, co-op and squad-based combat, a cinematic interface, and non-stop dialog between Kane and Lynch. The title also features two-player co-op and online game play.
