PlayStation announced on their blog today the addition of another character to Super Sma...lemme try that again. To PlayStation All Stars Battle Royale, Evil Cole of inFAMOUS.
Initially unveiled during the GameStop Managers Show in San Antonio, now the whole world can see what Evil Cole is capable of.
Evil Cole is more than just a costume change. Players familiar with inFAMOUS 1 and 2 know that Cole's powers change, sometimes drastically, depending on his moral alignment, which are based on the choices the player makes throughout the games. Guess what kind of choices this version made?
Gameplay between the two Coles is said to be immediately recognizable, and Evil Cole seems far more heavy handed in his combat than just plain old Cole. Evil Cole harnesses the powers of both electrokinesis and pyrokinesis in battle, offering a more ruthless style.
Check the trailer to see Evil Cole's moves in action.
"Evil Cole can blast opponents from afar with bursts of fire and electricity, or engage opponents at close range with incendiary strikes. Players can utilize familiar attacks such as the Hellfire Rocket, Tripwire Rocket, and Firebird Strike to dispatch foes. Evil Cole is able to harness the power of The Beast once his energy has reached maximum level, leaving nothing in his wake. He is also able to suck AP out of his enemies using his Ionic Drain, giving him an AP headstart before opponents are ready for the next onslaught. He brings an offense-heavy playstyle to the fight that rivals that of the most fearsome challengers on the roster."
Yeesh...
