Empire Interactive announced that FlatOut 2 is now available at retail outlets nationwide for the PlayStation 2, Xbox and PC.

FlatOut 2 features an updated physics engine with even faster track designs and numerous other improvements, enhancements and additions to make the title the definitive FlatOut experience. With twice as many vehicles, a more sophisticated career mode, additional race environments, an
increased number of tracks, twice as many mini-games, as well as brand new and much-requested online multiplayer modes, this title is sure to appeal to hardcore FlatOut groupies.

The FlatOut experience is further strengthened with more than 5,000 fully destructible objects on every track, as well as 40 deformable parts on each vehicle. Greater emphasis is placed on track destruction by offering FlatOut 2 drivers bigger rewards, creating more frantic game play than ever before. Drivers will need to tear into competitors' cars, trash the local scenery, and litter the track with obstacles, while at the same time trying to concentrate on their own race in a bid to cross the line first.

The ever-popular Ragdoll mini-games from the original FlatOut game make a welcome return and are better than ever with 12 Ragdoll events and full online support. New Ragdoll events include a slammin' basketball game, baseball, royal flush cards and a death-defying Ring of Fire.

Game Features

- Bigger variety of race environments including Big City, L.A. Storm Drains, Rocky Mountain Forest, Corn Fields and Desert.
- Increased number of tracks with alternate track routes included for the first time.
- Enhanced Championship Mode with multiple cups across increasing difficulty levels.
- Twice as many vehicles plus additional car types-- muscle cars, sports cars, pickup trucks and compacts.
- Garage feature allows player to now own multiple vehicles.
- Unlockable bonuses including additional cars, Championship Cups and Destruction Arenas.
- Improved opponent AI with each AI driver represented by a character and exhibiting a unique driving style.
