Electronic Arts Signs Dead to Rights 2: Hell to Pay

Electronic Arts today announced plans to co-publish Dead to Rights, the upcoming third-person action shooter sequel in the works at Namco Hometek Inc this summer, for the PC, Xbox and PS2. The game marks the return of action-hero Jack Slate and his K-9 companion, Shadow - both find themselves once again in the squalid, mean streets of Grant City, ensnared in a labyrinth of crime, corruption and betrayal. Dead to Rights 2 features gritty, Hong Kong cinema-style action and innovating new gameplay mechanics such as greater interaction with Shadow, brutal, all-new disarm moves, a lightning-fast 360 degree fighting engine, vicious melee weapon battles and a dramatic new spherical slow-motion diving system. New screenshots from the PS2 and Xbox versions have been inserted in our gallery - don't forget to grab the first trailer featuring one minute and a half of cinematic footage.
