Infamous 2

Infamous 2 moves ahead as Sucker Punch’s thrilling open-world sequel, giving players the chance to use Cole MacGrath’s powerful lightning powers in the colorful, bayou-filled streets of New Marais. RPCS3 lets this PS3-only game run on modern PCs with smooth 60 FPS performance, sharper resolutions up to 4K, and perfect stability that makes every bolt and blast in the superhero show even more exciting.

The Gripping Storyline of Infamous 2

In Infamous 2, Cole MacGrath fights the world-ending “Beast” and escapes the destruction of Empire City, but the Beast lives on and causes chaos. Cole sails to New Marais with NSA Agent Lucy Kuo and old friend Zeke Dunbar to ask Dr. Sebastian Wolfe for help in increasing his powers through the Ray Field Inhibitor (RFI). Cole is trapped by the oppressive Militia led by Bertrand. He takes a Blast Core, unlocks upgrades, and saves the transformed Kuo. He then joins forces with rebels to fight against corrupted horrors and faction wars that are destroying neighborhoods like Ville Cochon and Flood Town.

Cole fights Bertrand’s evil plans, fights Nix with ice, and races to charge the RFI while learning about the horrors of the Ray Field plague. The end of the story is a moral crossroads: Cole sacrifices friends, kills the Beast (who turns out to be John White), and activates the RFI, destroying Conduits to save humanity at the highest cost. On the villainous path, Cole embraces power, betrays friends, destroys the device, and unleashes a conduit army, becoming the new apocalypse.

Masterful Gameplay Mechanics in Infamous 2

Infamous 2’s main gameplay is fluid third-person action, where Cole’s electricity arsenal—bolts, blasts, grenades, rockets—chains into combo devastation. You can collect 305 Blast Shards to get infinite energy and seven story-locked cores to make permanent changes to your character. A versatile Amp melee weapon lets you do combos like in God of War. Karma branches let you unlock ice cryokinesis (heroic precision freezes) or napalm flames (villainous area carnage). You can also use L1-held wheels to switch tactics and ionic vortices to control crowds.

Traversal is amazing because it has rail-grinding speed, wall-running climbs, and precise boosts that let you explore New Marais’s verticality while also doing side missions to clear enemy nests. User-generated content lets people make and share missions, and dynamic karma changes powers, civilian reactions, comic cutscenes, and branching storylines over 15 to 20 hours of replayable chaos.
