A new WW2 FPS adventure featuring a 32-player online mode has been announced by EA...
Electronic Arts has officially announced Medal of Honor Heroes 2 for PSP and Wii.
Medal of Honor Heroes 2 is the sequel to the original Medal of Honor Heroes on the PSP, where players took control of the main characters from previous Medal of Honor games in all-new levels. Medal of Honor Heroes 2 changes this - the game takes place on the June 6th, 1944, and you take the role of OSS Operative John Berg.
We've actually known about this game for a while - it featured on retail lists a while back, and Reggie mentioned it twice in their E3 press conference, but simply called it "Medal of Honor for the Wii" - it was mentioned as examples for both online and the Wii Zapper.
The sequel gives us a brand new World War 2 Single-player campaign, but the main feature this time is the online. Online will have support for up to 32 players, and features a "continuous-joining" style of play - players can pop in and out of the game as they please.
As for the Wii Zapper, the Wii version of Medal of Honor Heroes 2 features an extra mode designed for especially for it - an "old school"-style on-rails shooter.
