Atlus and ACE Team have continued their partnership with the announcement of Zeno Clash II, the sequel to the indie first person melee brawler coming to PC, Xbox Live Arcade, and Playstation Network in 2013. Zeno Clash II promises to be “bigger, bolder, and better in every way.”
New to the sequel, a “lock-on” feature and drop in/drop out cooperative multiplayer is promised. Players will now be able to play as Ghat and his sister Rimat.
“The world of Zenozoik is one of wild dreams and wilder nightmares,” stated Andres Bordeu, co-founder of ACE Team. “This is part of the reason we are working on Zeno Clash II, to give players the opportunity to explore Zenozoik with a friend via online cooperative multiplayer, turning those moments of wonder and awe into a shared adventure. We will make certain that going back and forth between solo and cooperative play preserves the consistency and impact of the narrative experience, while still allowing friends easily drop in and out of the game’s fulfilling exploration and visceral melee combat.”
