Sierra Entertainment has announced the development of Prototype, an all-new open-world game in which players take on the role of Alex Mercer, a man with amazing shape shifting powers.
Set in New York City, Mercer is haunted by his past and is in the middle of a conspiracy tied to his origins that threatens the future of mankind. Using his powers, Mercer can become an exact replica of anyone who he meets, taking on not only their likeness but also their skills.
“Radical Entertainment set out to create the most dynamic video game character ever imagined. From free-form movement to over-the-top combat action; Prototype can climb or wall-run across any surface, jump 30 stories high, and destroy anything that crosses his path,” said Kelly Zmak, president of Radical Entertainment.
Prototype is scheduled for release in summer 2008 for PS3, Xbox 360 and PC.
