PS3 exclusive content and more
Capcom have released a bunch of new screenies for the PS3 version of Lost Planet: Extreme Condition, scheduled to hit in early 2008.Out of the box you’re going to get a gripping single player campaign and intense multiplayer modes with support for up to 16 players online set across enormous world maps as players battle hostile creatures in blistering weather conditions across vast snow fields and blazing volcanic areas either on foot or in armed, robotic Vital Suits.
Lost Planet: Extreme Condition for the PS3 will release with a number of specific features not previously available in retail editions of the console version. These include 16 diverse multiplayer maps right out of the box and additional playable characters each with their own unique abilities.
You’ll be able to take on gamers around the world via PLAYSTATION Network and participate in a variety of cooperative and versus battles with up to 16 players. These include Elimination, where it’s every snow pirate for themselves in this death match mode where the victorious are rewarded for the most points earned. Then there’s Team Elimination where you and your teammates will have to use strategy and cooperation in eliminating the opposing side.
You’ll also get Post Grab where teams are tasked with capturing and holding as many Posts as possible or how about Fugitive where one player is assigned as the “Fugitive”, and he or she will earn points for various actions (staying alive, killing enemies, capturing Posts). Dying deducts points and winning is determined when a maximum total is reached or when the score ticks down to zero.
In you struggle to win it might be helpful to command highly powered VS and weapons not only to help players traverse the treacherous terrain, but to eliminate enemies that lie ahead. Strategically switch between VS and on foot gameplay to best face each situation and challenge.
And for what else lies ahead, well you’ll have to wait a bit longer and just enjoy these screenies.
