As promised, Mercenaries 2 is veering away from the original game's locale of North Korea. This time, things get more exciting as the storyline revolves around a power-hungry tyrant that messes with Venezuela's oil supply. This then sparks an invasion turning the country into a warzone. Weapons. Explosions. Fun!

The developer, Pandemic Studios, however was quick to point out that there is more to Mercs 2 than setting change. Above everything else, Pandemic is most excited over the element of fire: a living and breathing new feature in the game, something that can be used as a weapon, a barrier, and more. Basically, Pandemic wants us to play with it.

All three mercenaries are back with a friend! Eva, the newest team member, is expected not to disappoint. Aside from cool new weapons and vehicles, Mercs 2 allows fans now to build their own private military company by recruiting other mercenaries that you meet in the game. And just how big this new Mercs 2 game is? Well, let's just say it is larger than all of the maps of the first game combined.

When asked about the possible availability of Mercs 2 in other game consoles, Pandemic answered, "To date, only the PS3 version has been announced. There are a lot of speculation and rumors about porting the title to other consoles from fans but nothing else has been confirmed."

Still, it is safe to say that Mercenaries 2 is getting a lot of anticipation from fans of all consoles alike.
