Shellshock 2 morphs into a survival horror FPS

Remember Shellshock: Nam ‘67? It’s a reviled third-person shooter from Eidos that came out four years ago. There’s a sequel coming this December, but it isn’t quite the same game. Shellshock 2: Blood Trails has morphed into a survival horror FPS.

Since the sequel has switched developers, we still can’t say if Blood Trails would be better than its predecessor. Rebellion, Shellshock 2’s developer, is responsible for games such as Rogue Trooper, Gun: Showdown, and Miami Vice: The Game. Yeah, not quite A-list, I know.

One advantage that Rebellion has over Guerrilla Games’ original Shellshock—they can’t make the sequel any worse.
