Söldner-X 2 out now! Gameplay Video #4

Yes, that's right! Söldner-X 2: Final Prototype is finally available for download on the PlayStation®Network -- as long as you are living in North America. Gamers in Europe (and other territories covered by SCEE) will have to be patient for just a few more hours until the European PlayStation®Store update is taking place later this afternoon. (Update: The European release is now live as well!) A release in Asia (apart from Japan) will follow from June 1st onwards.

In case you are just waiting for your download to complete or are still hesitant, here's another fourth (and currently final) gameplay video for your viewing pleasure.

On behalf of the entire team behind Söldner-X 2, I'd like to say thanks a lot to all gamers around the world for showing their support. We really appreciate every single one of you!

Gameplay Video #2

It's less than 48 hours until the North American Söldner-X 2: Final Prototype product launch, a perfect time for another video release.

Once more, the following gameplay video contains footage based on the first two stages of the game (Zeus Sector & Reef Complex), including a look at Reef Complex's boss battle (one of my personal favorites in the game).

Söldner-X 2 avatars

Do you think you have what it takes to be one of the biggest Söldner-X fans? Then we might have just the right (virtual) item for you in the pipeline. Show your commitment to all your PlayStation®3 online buddies and add one of the soon to become available Söldner-X 2: Final Prototype avatars to your PlayStation®Network online ID.

Five different Söldner-X 2 premium avatars will be released during the month of June at a price of 49cents each only. And if you happen to live in parts of Asia (such as Hong Kong, Taiwan or Singapore), you may want to visit your PlayStation®Store right away, the full range of Söldner-X 2 premium avatars has already been published over (t)here.

Adding your new avatar to your PlayStation®Network online ID is easy, but remember that each avatar can only be used in conjunction with the online ID that it was purchased with.

Oh, and I almost forgot to mention that there's also going to be a bundle containing all five avatars at a discounted price. Release dates for all avatars vary depending on your region, so make sure to follow our blog for updates.

'Nuff said, here's gameplay video #1.
