James Heller is a completely different kind of beast than his predecessor Alex Mercer  was, and Activision wants to make sure that point comes across clear as day. In Prototype 2, along with all the other unique moves he has at his disposal, Heller has the option to carry around numerous weapon types, in the event that the player doesn’t want to get their tendrils dirty when dealing with genetic freaks and military personnel, or just to cause a bit of extra chaos in the city. These range from standard automatic rifles, to more powerful tools like the grenade launcher and machine gun. The latest trailer gives a good look at how destructive these weapons can really be.

Prototype 2 is set to come out on April 24 for consoles, with a PC version to arrive in late July.
