'Kane & Lynch 2' pre-order details emerge

Square Enix has announced the bonus items for anyone pre-ordering Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days, including an exclusive multiplayer map and several special weapons.

Developed by IO Interactive, the sequel follows disturbed criminals Adam 'Kane' Marcus and James Seth Lynch in a gritty criminal escapade in Shanghai, China.

Consumers who pre-order Kane & Lynch 2 will receive access to an exclusive multiplayer map, titled The Radio Tower.

The map involves players attempting to collect $4 million in dirty cash from an area of Shanghai where old communist monuments are due to be demolished. The players will need to work together in order to get out alive with the money.

Pre-orders will also get access to seven new weapons: the US Assault rifle, custom submachine gun, US standard shotgun, customised MG, small low-grade MG, silenced handgun and standard issue police handgun with silencer.

They will further receive eight Chinese costume masks for ensuring anonymity while committing criminal acts.
