Haze: The Revolution

Haze: The Revolution is an upcoming first-person shooter released exclusively to the PS4. Developed by Deep Silver after acquiring the rights from Crytek UK, formerly Free Radical Design - the developers of Haze - the game is due to be released early 2016. Set four years after the events of Haze, the game is once again told through the eyes of Shane Carpenter, a veteran Mantel trooper, who joined with the Promise Hand rebels, led by Gabriel Marino.

Gamplay
Unlike the first game, Haze: The Revolution does not feature Mantel trooper gameplay, however this does not mean that the player cannot use Mantel's performance enhancing drug: Nectar. After the events of the first game, Gabriel Marino decided to use Nectar to his own advantage, proving he learnt nothing from Mantel. Throughout the campaign, the player has the option to inject themselves with Nectar in a rather unorthodox fashion: the player uses a syringe to inject themselves compared to the previous game where a Nectar administrator was provided for the player to use. The player is provided with four syringes, but if the player were to run out they could exchange from their teammates. Halfway through the campaign the player is unable to use Nectar, instead relying on other techniques to proceed in the game.

Plot
The game takes place four years after the events of Haze, during which time Mantel, having had its Nectar administrator sabotaged in the previous game, has been forced to rely on its prototype androids, due to its army being incapacitated or killed due to Nectar withdrawal. Shane Carpenter, a former Mantel trooper, rides with Gabriel Marino, leader of the Promise Hand, into war-torn South America aboard a helicopter. Gabriel explains to Shane that Mantel's oppression is nearing its end. Gabriel drops Shane off at a clearing, where he instructs Shane to clear out the Mantel forces in that area. Using Nectar, Shane attacks the Mantel Androids and emerges victorious, much to the approval of the town's villagers. Gabriel joins him, introducing him to his family who he had to keep secret to protect them. Shane escorts Gabriel's wife and baby son to the helicopter, and they are flown back to base.
