Eidos Interactive, one of the worlds leading publishers and developers of entertainment software, is pleased tounveil a sinister new twist to the online multiplayer experience in Kane & Lynch: Dead Men called Fragile Alliance.
Fragile Alliance is based on greed, betrayal and revenge, offering online gamers the choice of working as a teamor back-stabbing their team mates and working for themselves at any moment. Up to eight players team up againstpolice in a series of gripping heist scenarios, but from here the choice is entirely up to the individual player.The objective is to steal the loot and make it to the getaway point. The winner is the player who escapes with the most loot. How and when you make your move is up to you.
We wanted to make a multiplayer experience using the theme, dynamics and atmosphere of Kane & Lynch: DeadMen said Kim Krogh, Lead Game Designer, IO Interactive. Fragile Alliance is a new way to use co-op inmultiplayer. Play it like a soldier and youll lose, play it like a criminal and youll win.
Kane & Lynch multiplayer opens up Pandoras gun cabinet in terms of gameplay possibilities, said FabienRossini, Brand Controller, Eidos. The options available to players are mouth-watering; are you a team player,a traitor, a bounty hunter, a cop the decision is yours. You may start as part of a team but then its up to theplayer what they want to do.
