A sequel to a remake of a classic. Make sense?

Midway Games Inc. announced today that Spy Hunter 2, the high-speed, mission-based, action/combat racing game has gone gold and will to ship to stores on November 24, 2003 for the PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system.

Spy Hunter 2 is a powerful progression in the mission to save the world from the sinister grip of the global criminal terrorist group, Nostra. Spy Hunter 2 features an all-new, extremely powerful and customizable G-8155 Interceptor with new vehicle transformations such as an off-road 4-wheel drive vehicle, a jet ski and a snow mobile. In addition, the gameplay includes upgradable offensive and defensive weaponry, as players fend off enemy vehicles throughout massive levels set across enormous regions. A new mysterious, sexy female agent has also been added to the mix to increase the intensity of Spy Hunter 2's fast-paced action.

Spy Hunter 2 introduces an all-new terrorist threat and it is up to Alec Sects to command the world's most sophisticated super spy vehicle to save the world. Exclusive weaponry such as an auto-tracking turret and an indestructible armored shield are combined with landmines and oil slicks for an impressive defense that will immerse gamers in 16 action-packed levels set across four gigantic regions from Russia, New Orleans, The Swiss Alps and Southeast Asia. Each region is interactive and dynamic, allowing players to choose their own paths and fight against giant end-of-mission bosses, including eight all-new Nostra/Phoenix enemies.
