Insomniac Games, backed by EA, is nearly ready to launch its latest original franchise IP and the company’s first multi-platform game. The four-player co-op shooter Fuse, first announced to the world as Overstrike once upon a time, will ship May 28th in North America (May 31st in Europe) for PS3 and Xbox 360.
The masterminds behind Ratchet & Clank, Resistance and Spyro the Dragon are bringing their love of explosions and bad-ass weapons to the sci-fi world of Fuse, putting players in command of a squad of four covert agents on a mission to protect mankind from a lethal source of alien energy. Armed with advanced Xenotech weaponry and unique skills, players will team up for online co-op or play in single player mode, using the game’s LEAP mechanic to seamlessly switch control between the four playable characters on the fly.
Fuse pre-orders are currently open for business, with GameStop and Amazon.com both offering a Fusion Pack containing these in-game extras:
– Four Hyperion Prototype Agent Armor Skins — Upgrade your agents’ look with four special, state-of-the-art armor skins discovered inside the top-secret Hyperion Base.
– Four Hyperion Prototype Weapon Skins — Customize your Fuse weapons with four skins based on each of the original prototypes developed inside Hyperion Base.
– Quickdraw Team Perk — Increase your damage with this team perk adding powerful Fuse elements to all one-handed weapons for all four characters in your squad.
