Syndicate trailer shows co-op corporate warfare

While Starbreeze's rebooted Syndicate FPS may not be a squad-based tactical affair like the original games, you'll be able to somewhat pretend you're recreating them in its four-player co-op mode. Publisher EA today released a new trailer and screens of Syndicate's co-op, so boot up your augmented reality implants and start tuning your drug glands for self-deception.

The co-op mode boasts nine missions supposedly "inspired by" Bullfrog's much-loved original Syndicate. Have a gander at it in these new screenshots, and watch the trailer below.

Like the snazzy announcement trailer, it's soundtracked by a remix of a classic Syndicate tune, this time from Digitalism. EA's offering an MP3 download of that too if you 'Like' Syndicate on Facebook

Syndicate is headed to PC, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3 on February 12, having had its release date actually bumped forwards.

      I approve, even if the gunplay looks a little basic.

      Generic sc-fi FPS from EA. What could possibly go wrong?

          This is my only hope, but it's been shown that EA can fuck even the best developers.

            Starbreeze made one good game.

            Granted it was really good, but the sequel wasn't.

              Wrong, they made 3 good games, and did a very good job at re-HD' ing butcher bay twice in a row.

      Too bright. Needs to be much darker.

      Less shiny shit, more actual syndicate recreation.

      Awesome - So many recent games could have been vastly improved by a proper coop campaign.

      Looks very, very generic. If it didn't have the Syndicate name on it I doubt I'd bother even following it's progress.
