Add review
Features new to Mercenaries 2 include destructible environments, offline and online co-operative mode[2], a fire effects engine that allows the player to ignite things such as oil, foliage, and trees and the ability to swim. The game is powered by the Havok 4.5 physics engine.
New vehicles such as boats have been added[3] Hijacking now consists of a small minigame, ranking in difficulty relative to the vehicle being hijacked. Another feature is the ability to switch from driver to gunner on demand. One other new addition to this iteration of Mercenaries is the ability to build a Private Military Company and recruit mercenaries into it. There are two confirmed mercenaries that can be recruited: Eva Navarro who will act as a mechanic once recruited and Ewan who is a helicopter pilot who can pick up valuable objects you may encounter, and can also extract you if necessary. Also, a new unnamed (Russian) bomber pilot will be able to be hired, who is your source for airstrikes.
The game will feature terrain ranging from urban environments such as Caracas, to the Amazon rainforest. It will also include the cities and regions of Maracaibo, Cumaná, Mérida, Ciudad Guayana, Guanare, the Orinoco River, Lake Maracaibo, the Northern Andes, Isla de Margarita, and more.

Mercenaries 2: World in Flames - Xbox 360 Review (via Xbox Solutions) - One of my favorite original Xbox games was Mercenaries. The game has plenty of action and tons of stuff to blow up. It also had a great side angle. You had to keep all three factions happy or at least stay on their good side to a point. If not and you ticked off everyone, you either had to bribe someone or be out of luck. | |
