Godfather II Details Emerge

UK, August 7, 2008 - First concrete details have emerged around EA's Godfather II, the sequel to the movie-based game that's currently in development, revealing it will take place in Miami, Havana and New York.

Featured in this month's Xbox World 360 Magazine, which has been thumbed by the literate types at CVG, John Riccitello's previous announcement that the game would include RTS elements are confirmed, with it earning the description of "Scarface meets Total War."

Character classes have been expanded also, now encompassing bruiser, demolitions expert, arsonist, medic, safe cracker and engineer, and while a multiplayer mode is expected, EA is yet to reveal what it will entail. The game's due out in 2009, and expect to see more coverage here over the next few weeks.
