Quick notes

  • Alcatraz inherits the suit and its mission. The player begins as a Marine rather than the first game’s Nomad.
  • Gould explains the crisis. Nathan Gould provides scientific guidance as Alcatraz moves through New York.
  • CELL is not a single friendly authority. Lockhart’s forces treat the suit’s wearer as a target, while Strickland’s role develops through the story.
  • Hargreave has his own objectives. Hargreave’s interest in the Nanosuit creates another layer of direction and conflict.
