By Capcom teased an announcement over Xbox Live and all the hype was for Lost Planet 2. Instead of blowing up Akrid in tundra the “Snow” Pirates head to a swamp / jungle base. Mecha, or as Capcom calls them Vital Suits, are still part of the game. New for Lost Planet 2 is a cover system. The trailer shows troops scrambling behind objects and a defensive soldier use an expandable metal shield. Looks like Lost Planet got some ideas from other FPS games like Gears of War.
