Glazer orders Lynch and Kane to go with his men to attack the crime bosses directly to get some answers. Glazer recognizes the men as working for a high ranking crime boss of Shanghai called Hsing and is still perplexed as to why he'd attack him like this. Glazer's limo is eventually rammed over and Lynch, Kane, Glazer and his bodyguard proceed on foot to a garage to get some cover and regroup. Lynch and Kane are tasked to try and escort Glazer's limo across, killing all the opposing ambushers, clueless as to why they're attacking them in the first place. Shortly after some small talk about the Shanghai perks, the limo is ambushed by Chinese gangsters. It then cuts to Lynch and Kane sitting in the back seat of Glazer's limo. Once catching up, the woman is killed accidentally through the crossfire, to which the gangster slits his own throat afterwards. He uses the woman as a shield to get himself out of there, forcing Lynch along with Kane to give chase. Once arriving there the informant is currently involved in sexual activities with a woman. Lynch heads to a low-level gangsters apartment to deal with him after he was discovered to be an informant against Glazer. Upon arriving to Shanghai, Lynch asks for Kane's help with a ''quick thing'' before he shows him to his hotel room.
Lynch and his crew get involved in an arms deal where the pay is beyond their wildest dreams, and despite not having spoken to his former partner in years, Lynch decides to call in Kane for backup due to his military experience. The peace in his life mostly stems from having found a girlfriend, Xiu, whom he has genuine feelings for. Described in the first game as a "self-medicated psychopath," Lynch has found a peaceful life in the city of Shanghai, where he does simple jobs for a minor British gangster known as Mr. The game switches the lead character from Kane to Lynch. Shangsi - A high ranking corrupt official, with enough power to essentially be in charge of the entire Shanghai City.Hsing - A Shanghai crime boss who acts as one of the game's main antagonists.A cockney accented English man who sets up the aforementioned deal Lynch and Kane were both laying their lives for. A military grade shooter with plenty of experience with weapons and warfare, Lynch saw him as the perfect candidate to help with the upcoming deal Lynch has been offered.
Adam ''Kane'' Marcus - An old friend of sorts of Lynch.A psychopath with some severe mental problems, life in Shanghai was initially proving to help improve his condition, such as even taking away his constant need for medication. James Lynch - The leading character this time around, over Kane from the original.
However much of the artifacting and intentionally blurry visual quality cannot be turned off. The option to turn 'Steadycam' on is available in the options menu, and will eliminate the sudden movements while running or making sharp turns. In addition to this there are new camera filters which, like many digital cameras, will make the camera's view vulnerable to bright lights and explosions. Furthermore, whenever someone in the game has been killed with a headshot their head wound will be placed under a mosiac. The automatic " sticky cover" system used in Dead Men has been dropped in favor of a button-operated system, a la Uncharted or Gears of War.Īnother addition to the game from the first is a differing camera style this time around the camera will have a more "gritty" feel due to it being shaky and somewhat unpredictable, comparable to how a documentary may be filmed it will make the game appear more real, offering more immersion and making on-screen action more shocking. The cover-system in the game has been redesigned as well. Just like in Dead Men, cover is destructible. The player can then fire at their enemy from this prone position (with vastly reduced accuracy because of the frantic nature of the gun play) or press a button to get back on their feet. A new mechanic called "Down Not Dead" has also been added, which causes the character to fall flat on their back when hit with a particularly powerful shot which does not kill them. The squad mechanics from the first game have been dropped entirely, as a design decision was made to make the game more visceral and action-oriented and less tactical.
Competitive online multiplayer also returns. GameplayĪs with Dead Men, Kane & Lynch 2 is co-op focused, however this time online co-op is supported, as opposed to the offline-only co-op mode present in the first game. However in place of its squad-based gameplay is a new visual style and a new locale, and the belated introduction of online cooperative play. A direct-sequel to Kane & Lynch: Dead Men, Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days is a third-person cover-based shooter similar to its predecessor.
