Infamous 2 vs Infamous: Festival of Blood
Side-by-side comparison of features, pricing, ratings, and alternatives.
Infamous 2 puts players back in the shoes of Cole MacGrath, a conduit with the ability to control electricity. Set in the vibrant, post‑apocalyptic city of New Marais, the game blends high‑octane combat with parkour traversal. Explore a massive open world, make moral choices that shape the story, and master a deep skill tree that lets you electrify enemies, power up allies, and manipulate the environment. The single‑player experience delivers a mix of puzzle solving, beat‑'em‑up action, and narrative-driven adventure.
Cole MacGrath returns as a blood‑thirsty vampire in a standalone, horror‑themed expansion that reuses the Infamous 2 engine and map. Set during the eerie Pyre Night celebration, the game blends open‑world exploration with beat‑em‑up combat and a spooky narrative told by Zeke Dunbar. The expansion adds new powers, characters, and a comic‑style cutscene creator, while supporting PlayStation Move and removing the series’ traditional karma system to focus on the vampire transformation storyline.
