Mercenaries 2: World in Flames™ is an explosive open-world action game set in a massive, highly reactive, war-torn world. A power-hungry tyrant messes with Venezuela's oil supply, sparking an invasion that turns the country into a warzone.
But for you, international crisis is all upside: You are a mercenary, and you profit from chaos. Mercenaries 2™ features a slew of potential clients, all willing to pay you to do their dirty work. Dirty deeds, done for exorbitant fees. These are world powers with deep pockets, deep grudges, and enough arms and ammo to start World War III. This is your kind of environment.
Mercenaries 2™ features the latest and most dangerous in civilian and military tech, everything from shiny new sports cars, to the future-tech satellite-guided bunker-busting mini-nuke. Tanks, APCs, boats, luxury automobiles – you name it, you can have it delivered to you in real time. And if you run out of cash you can always 'acquire' the gear you need in the field.
If you see it, you can buy it, steal it, or blow the living crap out of it. Play your own way, or play with the help of a friend in the new cooperative multiplayer mode.
You are not a soldier. You don't have to play by anyone's rules. You have your own code: you will fulfill the terms of the contract, no matter what. Not everyone in the world of Mercenaries is as honorable. Everyone will try and screw you, given the chance. They think they can get away with it, because they don't know rule #1: EVERYBODY PAYS.
* Cooperative Multiplayer!
Play the main Mercenaries 2 campaign with the help of your friends. Jump in and out of a game at any time!
* Enhanced Destruction!
Bring buildings teaming with enemy soldiers down section by section, topple an overpass with C4 to stop an oncoming enemy vehicular assault, fire off an RPG at a balcony and watch as it crashes on unsuspecting enemies below – in Mercenaries 2, destruction isn't just cool to look at, you can use it to your advantage!
* A massive, reactive, and completely unscripted game world!
The world of Mercenaries 2 is larger than all of the maps of the previous Mercenaries combined and is jam-packed full of colorful characters and environments.

Increase and customize your support options by recruiting other mercenaries you meet in the game!

* Tired of driving?
Take over landing zones in the world and instantly travel from place to place!
* If you can't beat them, steal from them!
Don't want to pay for a Bunker Buster? No problem – every faction has tons of fuel and munitions just waiting for the resourceful mercenary to acquire. Just make sure that Bunker Buster doesn't blow up when you start getting shot at!
* No Deadly Water!
Don't worry about drowning ever again: use watercraft or swim to traverse the oceans, rivers and lakes of Mercenaries 2.
* Cool new toys!
Dozens of weapons, vehicles and support options are available for to use to blow the crap out of everything! Use the new grappling hook to latch on to flying vehicles and commandeer them in the sky!
* Work for the highest bidder!
Clients will offer you money, information and other resources in exchange for your services – provided you haven't done anything to piss them off!
