Electronic Arts’ cooperative shooter Army of Two has debuted at the top of the UK All Format Charts following its release last Friday on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360
The title’s success marks the first time an original Intellectual Property (IP) from EA has graced the top of the UK charts following the release of Black in 2006.
Developed by EA Montreal, Army of Two focuses on cooperative-based gameplay, allowing players to team up with a built-in Partner Artificial Intelligence (PAI) or cooperate with other gamers in an effort “to fight through war, political turmoil and a conspiracy so vast it threatens the entire world."
One of the game’s major attractions is its in-depth weapon customisation option, which allows the player to upgrade a variety of weapons throughout the game, ranging from standard pistols, shotguns and automatics, to more advanced and destructive tools, such as rocket launchers, sniper rifles and grenade launchers.
