Lost Planet 2 Excellent New Trailer, And Multiplayer Map Screenshots
Summer is coming fast. And along with summer the snow on E.D.N III is melting. What does that mean? Well we’ll have to get Lost Planet 2 to find out. The game is looking pretty epic with every new trailer.
The game will be out May 18th for the PC, Playstation 3, and Xbox 360. Head past the break for screens on some exclusive pre-order maps. If you pre-order Lost Planet 2 from Game Stop you’ll get 2 exclusive map packs (the ones I posted below). Also, previously an exclusive pre-order was the Wekser skin and powerful magnum, but Capcom switched gears (no pun intended) and they will be releasing Wesker to everyone.
Back to the Island
The shady atoll of Island 902 is broken into wide open spaces and compact interiors. Choose your battlefield from the beaches to the battered carrier, or explore a new dimension in the underwater battle. Control the bridge to dominate the map, but beware attacks from all sides.

Helix
The underwater NEVEC mining facility houses several layers and twisted corridors. Swim between the layers, or dive to the bottom to change your point of attack. Aqua Catapults can launch you to the upper levels in a hurry, and you must learn every corner and get the upper hand on your enemies.

2 player splitscreen layout is looking a lot like Resident Evil 5’s, however the map is in a much better place. With good reason 2, the team behind RE5’s splitscreen will be doing it for Lost Planet 2’s as well.

All of us here at Bloody Disgusting are deeply sad to learn that The Blob director Chuck Russell has passed away at 74 years old.
Russell’s career began with his directorial debut, 1987’s A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors.
The multihyphenate film director, screenwriter, and producer is best known for helming 1994 comedy The Mask starring Jim Carrey, Arnold Schwarzenegger actioner Eraser, and adventure spinoff The Scorpion King. The latter served as the first leading role for Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
The filmmaker left an indelible mark on horror with his ANOES sequel, 1988’s The Blob, and 2000’s Bless the Child.
Russell’s final film credit is 2024’s Witchboard remake starring Madison Iseman (I Know What You Did Last Summer), Aaron Dominguez (Only Murders in the Building), and Jamie Campbell Bower (“Stranger Things”).
It marked Russell’s return to horror after a lengthy hiatus, and he shared sequel hopes to Bloody Disgusting in an interview ahead of the remake’s release: “I got to design the board with real mystical symbols and things that I know represent good and evil, and where that board takes us if the audiences respond to the film, and I hope they will; I know it’s out there for you guys, but the sequel is a world we’ll get to go a little further. That’s sure the intention.”
He also recently expressed interest in returning to the franchise that began his career.
TMZ notes that Russell passed away at his San Diego-area home.
We send our deepest condolences to Chuck Russell’s family, friends, and fans.
