Lost Planet® 2 — price & stats on Steam · GamesBerry

The larger than life action of Lost Planet 2, comes to PC! Lost Planet 2 is the sequel to Lost Planet™: Extreme Condition, the landmark third-person shooter which debuted on Xbox 360 and went on to sell over 2.3 million units worldwide after its release. Lost Planet 2 offers deeper insight into the world of E.D.N III and the uncertain fate of future mankind.

Already acclaimed for its visual accomplishments from the console versions, Lost Planet 2 will define the 3D experience on the PC. Stunning environments will immerse the player in NVIDIA Vision Surround technology, and the rebalanced gameplay and streamlined control mechanics make Lost Planet 2 PC the ultimate Lost Planet experience.

A decade has passed since the events of the first game, and the face of E.D.N. III has changed dramatically. Terraforming efforts have been successful and the ice has begun to melt, giving way to lush tropical jungles and harsh unforgiving deserts. Mankind has engaged in a civil war to take control of the precious Thermal Energy that powers weapons and vehicles on E.D.N. III and resulted in a separation into various factions.

Players will control heroes from each faction across 6 interconnected episodes, viewing the war from the perspective of each, creating a truly unique interactive experience. With this concept, players will have the opportunity to engage in the story in a much more dynamic way as plot threads evolve from different players’ perspectives.

The intense and action-packed campaign mode comes with the ability to form teams of up to 4 players online. Beyond the deep single-player and co-op modes, Lost Planet 2 is loaded with extensive multiplayer modes allowing up to 16 players to compete online, each with their own customizable avatar.

No action game would be complete without an arsenal of weaponry, and Lost Planet 2 has a huge variety of hardware for players to unleash on unsuspecting enemies. Machine guns, shotguns, rocket launchers, lasers, sniper rifles, grenades and a host of other weapons are scattered across the game. The grappling hooks that made the gameplay in Lost Planet a true 3-D experience are back, allowing gamers to gain tactical advantage by moving to elevated locations quickly.

Lost Planet 2’s biggest weapons come on two legs: the heavily armed and armored robotic Vital Suits return in greater numbers and variety than the first game. There are VS that transform into other vehicles, hold up to three players and some that even take multiple players to operate.

Before I start, I’ll answer this: “Why write a review for a game you can’t even buy anymore?” My girlfriend (<3) and I were talking about videogame covers and which ones drew us in. Two of mine were Titanfall and Lost Planet 2. The depiction of soldiers fighting a giant alien monster with conventional firearms looked cool, and this gave my kid self an autistic fixation that lasted a while, so I figured I'd talk about it. I'm also bored at work, and most of the reviews talk about the game not working anymore, not really about the game itself. Lost Planet 2 was primarily a co-op game, with a campaign taking place on the planet EDN III, but more on that later. This campaign could get quite frustrating, and repetitive. It was built around replayability. Each mission was graded from D to SS, with optional challenges that awarded bronze to gold based on performance. Gold granted extra XP and loot. If you were a completionist, this game was ♥♥♥♥♥♥’ brutal. Some challenges were a nightmare to gold, and the levels they were on ranged from awesome to boring as hell. The plot was an average B-movie sci-fi military drama about environmental exploitation, and its consequences. The story was told through cutscenes and ambient dialogue, and spanned over six chapters where the players were unnamed grunts from various factions on EDN III, an exploited planet with a variety of biomes (THANK YOU!), from lush tropical forests, to arctic wastelands. There isn’t really a “cast” The players are the cast. Overall It’s serviceable, but it ain't the reason you’re here. You fight human enemies a lot, and this made the game a passable but average third-person shooter. The gunplay wasn't anything to write home about, but it played nice with the other mechanics of the game. Now for why this game is “criminally underrated.” When it clicked, Lost Planet 2 was an INCREDIBLE co-op game. The movement, albeit dated now, was strong for its time. The grappling hook in particular felt fluid, and the levels were designed around it. Vehicles and mechs felt distinct, some smooth, and some intentionally rigid. Weapon variety and customization were excellent, letting you tailor your playstyle and make a character that felt like “yours”. You could even rip massive weapons off mechs and carry them on foot, which I absolutely did. PERSONAL NOTE: Why have I always had a fixation on heavy weapons? And then there's the Akrid. The Akrid, EDN III’s reptilian insectoid natives, are an absolute blast to fight. It’s no surprise they're on almost every screenshot on the Steam page. All the missions that focused on them were the best in the game. This is where the game shone. Picture four players fighting a passenger jet-sized Akrid, and its smaller minions. One pilots a mech, laying down fire on the akrid swarms. Another rides as the passenger, using their rocket launcher to cripple the big one's legs and stagger it. The other two use their grappling hooks to stay mobile, dodging attacks, then intentionally getting swallowed so they can attack the monster from within while the mech keeps pressure on it from the outside. That kind of coordination was where everything came together. Movement, vehicles, firepower, and teamwork all matter at once. It’s also where the game’s flaws hurt it most. The repetitive human combat and replay grind overshadowed just how good the Akrid fights were. When the focus was on Big Bosses, and teamwork, this game was really ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ fun. It’s a shame Capcom likely won’t [RE]visit it. Lost Planet 2 is that game that would have a small, dedicated playerbase on a Discord server that would host game nights, and a good candidate for a $14.99 4-pack for you and your friends to enjoy for a few sessions. Darn shame.
