The Premise:

When a volatile alien energy source called Fuse falls into the wrong hands, the CIA calls in an elite contact team to retrive it: Overstrike 9.  Join up to three friends in co-op play as you deploy lethal teamwork and Fuse-powered weapons to take down the rogue paramilitary corporation behind the theft.

Lethal teamwork:

"LEAP" between agents during battle and combine their weapons and abilities for devestating results.

Secret Alien Tech:

Whoever controls Fuse will have unlimited power at their disposal.

Experimental Weapons:

Combine the agents' Fuse-powered weapons to trigger Fusion for greatly increased damage.

Class-based Agents

Develop agents along deep upgrade paths and discover all the possibilities for lethal teamwork.

A quote from Ted Price:

We had an awesome trailer planned and finished. Unfortunately a last-minute legal-rights issue has prevented us from releasing the trailer as planned. EA is trying to obtain the necessary approvals and we hope to bring the trailer to you soon. After discussing internally, we wanted to stop the countdown and explain what happened.

In the interim, we’re proceeding with our other plans for the reveal. The new Fuse section of our website will be up with information and screenshots when the countdown was scheduled to end. Additionally, top-tier press from around the world will be publishing previews of the game including hands-on impressions. Then, on September 13th at 10 p.m. PDT, Gametrailers TV with Geoff Keighley will bring you a Fuse dedicated episode with the first raw gameplay footage.

Hi everyone! After a long journey navigating the sometimes-challenging waters of new IP development, we’re proud to reveal Fuse. Formerly known as Overstrike, it’s a third person, four-player cooperative game that centres around a volatile energy source that has fallen into the wrong hands. The substance, called Fuse, has been acquired by a terrorist organisation known as Raven and Overstrike 9 has been hired to track down and stop it from setting off a deadly arms race.

You can play with up to three of your friends, and each member of Overstrike 9 has its own signature Fuse-powered weapon. Play as Dalton Brooks, an ex-mercenary who has a Mag-shield that acts as portable cover and unleashes a devastating blast that liquefies opponents. Take on the role of Naya Deveraux, who can cloak to flank enemies and fire out mini-black holes that implode its victims.

As Jacob Kimble, you can keep enemies at a distance with the Arc Shot and shoot out charged bolts that chain react and fry enemies. Then there’s Izzy Sinclair, who can either launch out med beacons to heal teammates or fire her Shatter Gun to crystallise and explode nearby threats. And if you’re not sure who you want to play, you can use the LEAP feature to instantly switch to any available character. A good tactic when you’re in a pinch!

As you take down targets with both Fuse and conventional weapons, you’ll earn valuable points than can be used to upgrade your weapons and character abilities. You’ll earn more points on executing cooperative kills and these points and upgrades are beneficial across both campaign and another mode we’ll be revealing at a later time.

I’ve been at Insomniac for more than 13 years and was part of the development of the first Ratchet & Clank for the PS2. It’s never easy developing new gameplay, an engaging storyline, and new technology from scratch but at Insomniac right now, we’re having a lot of fun both evolving and playing Fuse.

I believe the telltale signs of a signature Insomniac game are in full force. We’re diligently working on making sure each character and gameplay mechanic is satisfying to play. Our story is filled with intrigue and contains exciting plot twists with a touch of that classic Insomniac humor. And there won’t be a shortage of replay options thanks to our LEAP feature.

We hope you’ll feel the same way when Fuse launches in March 2013!

You can look for more information on the official site, follow Insomniac on Twitter or like the Insomniac page on Facebook. We’re excited to show you more of Fuse soon.

Another shooter ?

yay....

too late in the gen for a FPS to make a mark

I preffered over strike Hopefully its good I was hoping it didn't get cancelled.

And it will flop nevertheless. It will flop so hard. All about this game is just so wrong, nobody will want to play it.

I predict it will kill Insomniac.

So sad too. Insomniac did great in the beginning of the gen but last year...

I would like to play. And never understimate a good shooter

Well, I hope it keeps the same sort of feel that the trailer had, which is to say I hope it doesn't take itself seriously. 

I thought the original name was lame. This one's lamer.
