Betrayal for Booty in Kane & Lynch Online
Liked Heat? Live out the movie in newly revealed multiplayer mode for IO's game.
There's no doubt that Danish developer IO Interactive has carefully crafted the singleplayer experience in its new action game Kane & Lynch: Dead Men, but the company has been using its collective grey matter to come up with something special for the multiplayer too.
While the main story will see the dysfunctional pair of main characters living up a life of crime as they make their way forcefully off death row it's in the new Fragile Alliance online multiplayer mode that you'll be able to live out your own fantasies.
In Fragile Alliance you and up to seven other players work together in a series of bank heists, foiling the best efforts of the police. The catch is that the winner is the one who makes it to safe ground with the most money, so there's every incentive for you to betray your partners in crime - your decision is to figure out how long to wait before heading off on your own.
Kane & Lynch: Dead Men is the latest game by the developers of Hitman. Publisher Eidos is already thinking big with the series and has recently announced that it's working on a sequel.
The game is coming for PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 and will be out in Europe on 23 November.
