Trine 2
Overview
The sequel to 2009's physics based co-operative action-platformer was announced at E3 2010 and is scheduled for a Q4 2011 release.
The sequel will see the return of the first game's original three protagonists:
Zoya the Thief
The Thief makes her way up to rooftops and over walls with her trusty grappling hook. Zoya is not so concerned about family or duty, but she is content to be a hero of the Trine, for she loves adventure.
Zoya's love for treasure, however, often leads her astray.
Pontius the Knight
The Knight is an eager champion of the kingdom, the protector of the common man with a great sense of justice. Armed with his sword, his shield and the powerful Storm Hammer, he's a formidable fighter.
Pontius's great weakness is food. This shows around his waist.
Amadeus the Wizard
Despite his ongoing research for finally learning the Fireball spell, the Wizard's talent is for conjuring peculiar boxes, and occasionally even planks. He can also levitate small inanimate objects.
Amadeus is married to a lady by the name of Margaret. They have three children, all of whom know the Fireball spell.
The game will continue the story of the first game, adding new environments, new puzzles, new abilities for the three main characters and new types of enemies that will force the player to use their new abilities wisely. The game will also feature three-player online co-op, the previous Trine had co-op but was offline only.
Multiplayer
Trine 2 allows all story levels to be played co-op with up to 2 additional players, either online or local. Individual level progress does not matter in multiplayer, as any level can be played even if a participant hasn't reached it yet in single player. Each player will have to play as Amadeus, Zoya, and Pontius.
Soundtack
The original soundtrack was created by the finnish composer and musician Ari Pulkkinen.
