Comments

Davilex Games has today announced that it's working on Knight Rider 2 for the PC and PlayStation 2. Based on the '80s TV show of the same name, the game is the sequel to last year's Knight Rider game, which has sold more than 170,000 units across Europe to date.

"We are excited to develop and publish the sequel to Knight Rider," said Rogier Avis, CEO of Davilex Games. "The first version was successful, and it is a logical move to release its follow-up. We have carefully listened to our customers' feedback on Knight Rider, and we will be incorporating many of the given suggestions into Knight Rider 2."

In addition to the chase, race, explore, and puzzle elements found in Knight Rider, the sequel will feature two additional gameplay elements: combat and minigames. Using KITT's combat mode, players will do battle against robots, armored vehicles, and Michael Knight's evil twin brother, Garth. Minigames in Knight Rider 2 will include a shooting gallery and dirt track racing, among others.

In addition to the single-player missions, Knight Rider 2 will feature split-screen support for two players, although it's not yet clear whether the multiplayer modes of play will be cooperative, competitive, or both. We'll bring you more information on Knight Rider 2, which is currently scheduled for release toward the end of this year, as soon as it becomes available.
