Man against machine

Fans of high-profile actors and big explosions have our permission to scream like little girls, as Ubisoft has announced that it’s bringing The Expendables 2 to PSN this summer.

The heavily rumoured movie spin-off promises “a feast of explosive over-the-top action, authentic to the Expendables franchise”. The game will see you tasked with the objective of rescuing a kidnapped billionaire. “It’s all business, until all hell breaks loose and the explosive mix of testosterone and kerosene detonates in a massive fireball that never lets up,” the press release explains.

The events of the game will lead directly into the new movie, “creating a continuous story experience for fans of the Expendables’ hard-boiled brand of action”.

You’ll be able to enjoy the co-operative shooter with up to three other players either locally or online. There’ll also be leaderboards for those of you feeling competitive.
