The upcoming issue of Game Informer magazine will unveil some details about the four player co-op game Crackdown 2.  Continuing on from the first game, it appears a zombie virus is spreading, and the civilians have banded together to form a gang and destroyed the Agency.  Day and night will play a crucial role in the game, and freaks will be bigger and badder than before.  

Of course someone managed to get their hands on the article early and leaked a ton more information regarding the game and its features.  

• Support points are gone, instead agents can call in supplies anytime
• The overall look of the game is grittier, but still retains the style of the original
• Repetitive boss battles are gone
• More instances where co-op is prudent
• Vehicles have room for mounted guns, great for co-op action
• While most vehicles are returning, there are new ones like a helicopter
• The city is mostly identical, but decays over time as the infection spreads
• New weapons like the rail gun
• 16 player competitive multiplayer with skill progression system

Wow, sounds like quite a bit of stuff, especially for co-op.  No release date was given.
