Army of TWO: The Devils Cartel To Ship Early 2013

Written by James Pope

EA and Visceral Games are teaming up to bring fans the next Army of TWO game and things could not be looking any better. During the press conference put on by Visceral we got to see an extended look at the game and as does everything using the Frostbite 2 engine the game is absolutely stunning.

During the Gamescom demo we got a chance to see where the team is taking the series. The tried and true tactical co-op is still in play and you can be sure to count on the over the top customization options that the series has been known for.

 Coming March 26, 2013 fans who pre-order will be rewarded with 3 additional contracts for play as soon as the game launches. This series has always been action packed and one of the more enjoyable co-op experiences out there for gamers and with this new addition it looks like the fun is just getting started.

With Army of TWO The Devil’s Cartel we wanted to take the series in a new direction while also leveraging the aspects that made the first two Army of TWO games unique, said Julian Beak, Executive Producer, Visceral Games. We knew coming out of the gate that meaningful co-op gameplay, customization and over-the-top action would be key pillars for us, and we’re bringing these elements to the next level by presenting them in a setting that is more serious in order to dial-up the intensity.

Also available will be the “Overkill Edition” which will provide players with 3 pieces of exclusive content. This Edition will include:

  • Early Access to Three “Overkillers” Contracts: Unleash massive destruction with three Contract variations designed for maximum rampage! Players must kill enemies and cause environment destruction to earn enough points to continuously stay in Overkill while making their way to the extraction point.
  • Tactical Co-op Gear: Lay down sustained cover fire with the TAH-9 side arm while decked out in the polymer textured outfit and mask or wield the Double D automatic shotgun while battling in the intimidating Overkill mask and outfit.
  • Celebrate the Day of the Dead: Bust out the Day of the Dead themed assault rifle and take on Mexico’s most ruthless drug lords in Day of the Dead themed outfit and masks designed by popular tattoo artists.
