Dark Sector multiplayer footage

by Richard Mitchell { Mar 6th 2008 at 2:30PM }

Hot on the heels of our own video hands-on with Dark Sector comes brand new footage of the game's multiplayer mode. As we mentioned in our own video, Dark Sector's multiplayer is fairly unique among shooters. Those who have followed the game know that its protagonist, Hayden, has some very special supernatural powers, most notably his biological throwing blade. Rather than pitting a bunch of Haydens against one another, Dark Sector's multiplayer focus on pitting a group of normal soldiers against a single Hayden (or Hayden and another enhanced character in the case of team games). Hayden has the ability to create a shield or turn himself invisible, which gives him a much needed advantage against an entire squad of soldiers. Whoever takes Hayden down gets to play as him during the next round. We've played it and it works really well. Check out the new video after the break.

its pretty cool that they are playing on Wetwork from Cod4. Too bad that wont be enough to make this any fun.

Wetwork? I'm pretty sure that boat from wetwork didn't have cobblestone streets.

Looks awesome, and yeah that stage does look like a much darker grittier version of Wetwork. Cant wait to get my hands on this one.
