PS3 - Full Auto 2: Battlelines - Full Auto 2: Battlelines Goes for the Gold

December 1, 2006 - Today SEGA announced that Full Auto 2: Battlelines for the PS3 has officially gone gold, and is ready to be manufactured and distributed to stores across North America. The sequel to the Xbox 360 game developed by Pseudo Interactive, Full Auto 2 features fast cars outfitted with destructive weaponry.

The game features destructible environments and dynamically changing track conditions. Players can choose from over 25 vehicles, all of which are customizable with the game's 20 explosive weapons. The game also introduces a new Arena Mode featuring team play, as well as five different multiplayer modes including Gladiator, Cat & Mouse, and Base Assault.

Full Auto 2 for the PS3 is slated for release on December 12 of this year, and will retail for a suggested price of $59.95.

Full Auto 2 Delayed

PS3 News from N4G | Full Auto 2: Battlelines

PS3 - Full Auto 2: Battlelines - Full Auto 2 Delayed

Despite previous plans to release Full Auto 2: Battlelines as a "day and date" launch title with the PlayStation 3, SEGA of America has retracted that notion and confirmed with IGN that it has pushed the game back by several weeks. Here's what the company's official spokesperson had to say:

"The release of Full Auto 2: Battlelines for the PS3 is on track for a holiday 2006 release," commented the SEGA's rep. "This highly anticipated award-winning combat racing title is setting the bar on the PS3 with an intense multiplayer mode that enables up to eight gamers to play head-to-head online. SEGA is targeting an early December ship date."
Other than what was stated above, SEGA didn't provide any additional particulars regarding Full Auto 2's release. Popular online retailers Gamestop and EB Games, however, list Battlelines as appearing on December 12.

Blow up new Full Auto 2 screens

PS3 News | Full Auto 2: Battlelines

Monday 23 October 2006 Proving that a picture can say a thousand physics and particle-effect buzzwords, new screens of Full Auto 2: Battlelines, the PS3-only sequel to the Xbox 360-only original, have crashed on to our images tab. It's hard to fault Battlelines for ticking all the expected videogame boxes - cars, guns, explosions - and then scribbling over the boxes with doodles of cars with guns, exploding. If there are subtle ways to show off the power of PS3, you won't find them here; it's ... » Read More

Full Auto 2 online on PS3 - mostly

PS3 News | Full Auto 2: Battlelines

The producer for PS3 launch title Full Auto 2: Battlelines has discussed PS3's still-mysterious online network, noting that Full Auto 2 will not be supporting achievements or stat-tracking over Sony's "I Can't Believe it's Not Xbox Live!"-style service. Producer Mike Gallo revealed during an Official U.S. PlayStation Magazine podcast that stat tracking will be handled by Gamespy - which he seems to be more familiar with than the PlayStation Network itself. "We use Gamespy as part of our back ... » Read More

New Battlelines shots drawn

PS3 News | Full Auto 2: Battlelines

Thursday 24 August 2006 Having careened off Xbox 360 on to PS3, the next entry in the Full Auto series - due at the end of the year - continues to finesse its selling point of blowing stuff up better than anyone else's driving game. The four new shots in the images tab above demonstrate your ability to blast holes out of the city as well as your opponents, with the game said to have a greater focus on 'strategic destruction' than the original. While we're not entirely sure that demolishing an ... » Read More

E3 06: Full Auto 2: Battlelines - hands-on

PS3 News | Full Auto 2: Battlelines

The PS3's first car-combat game is coming this fall, and Full Auto 2: Battlelines already looks like a marked improvement over its repetitive Xbox 360 predecessor. Sega's still keeping the single-player portion under wraps, but we've spent some time tearing around one of the eight-player deathmatch arenas, and it's explosive stuff. Taking the focus off racing, Full Auto 2 let us pick from four cars - two muscle cars, a sleek (but extremely light) sports car and an SUV that carries extra armor ... » Read More

Thursday 4 May 2006 Sega has released the first three shots of Full Auto 2: Battlelines, the second in its car combat series, which has switched allegiances from Xbox 360 and will now be exclusively for PlayStation 3. The sequel will allow gamers the chance to get behind the wheel of 25 different vehicles ranging from SUV's to muscle cars, which can be customised with 20 different weapon types. From then on it's all-out carnage as each race can be won by strategically destroying the other ... » Read More

Full Auto sequel in the works

PS3 News | Full Auto 2: Battlelines

Full Auto seems to be doing well on the Xbox 360, but apparently not well enough, because Sega today announced that Full Auto 2: Battlelines is in development as a PlayStation 3 exclusive. Like the original, Full Auto 2 will be a high-speed racing blastfest that lets you destroy and manipulate each track to your advantage. As before, there's a huge focus on causing as much devastation and mayhem as possible, and you'll be able to cut corners and crush competitors with a few well-placed ... » Read More

Full Auto leaves 360 for PS3

PS3 News | Full Auto 2: Battlelines

Tuesday 2 May 2006 Without wanting to look smug, just as we predicted last week Full Auto is getting a sequel. But what we didn't predict was that Full Auto 2: Battlelines will be PS3 exclusive. Publisher Sega has confirmed that the game will place greater emphasis on using the scenery to your advantage. That means firing rockets at vertical structures, darting underneath falling debris and leaving your opponents to pick their cars from the rubble. Sounds good. The popular 'unwreck' function ... » Read More

Full Auto sequel on the way?

PS3 News | Full Auto 2: Battlelines

Wednesday 26 April 2006 Full Auto developer Pseudo Interactive has been signed up by publisher Sega to develop another next-gen combat driving game which could well be Full Auto 2. Speaking to the Canadian press, Pseudo Interactive president David Wu said that his company was working on a driving game that will have "more stunts, better destruction, more destruction and different environments". And if 'more', 'better' and 'different' isn't the language used for sequels, we don't know what ... » Read More
