Lock 'n Load 2 ai the Real-Time Multiplayer First-Person Shooter Action game, the lates addition in the very successful Lock ‘n Load series.

Blaze's Lock 'n Load 2 employs two bits of whiz-bang technology to bring its first-person multiplayer shooting to life: Terraplay's MOVE 3.1 platform, and sister company Synergenix's mophun engine.

Lock ‘n Load 2 is set in beautifully rendered 3D environments and lets you invite your friends and foes to intense multiplayer sessions on four different multiplayer maps, either online with up to eight players via Terraplay servers or via Bluetooth.

There is also a single player mode where you’re challenged to survive over 10 thrilling levels with multiple floors and a multitude of enemies. “Using the latest mophun™ technology, Lock ‘n Load 2 pushes the mobile hardware to its limits and will overshadow all mobile 3D first-person shooters” comments Martin Forsling, Blaze’s European General Manager.

“Our multiplayer games have offered players around Europe an unrivalled multiplayer gaming experience with fast paced action and fantastic graphics. With Lock ‘n Load 2 Blaze takes 3D mobile gaming to the next level.”

Lock ‘n Load 2 will be released in August and is available for Symbian handsets including Symbian 9.
