Infamous 2 Takes Into Account Your Infamous 1 Trophies

Infamous

There's no need to leave your progress behind just because a sequel has come along. Infamous 2 takes into account things you did in the first game through Trophies and then rewards you for them.

IGN reports that Infamous 2 will ask you to import Trophy data when first playing the game. From there, depending on which Trophies you earned, you'll get any number of different things. Good or evil Trophies will start you out at level 1 good or evil karma; collecting 25% of Blast Shards gives you a free energy core; collecting 50% gets you two free energy cores; beating the game gets you 1,000 free XP; and other specific Trophies will be reflected through dialog and other means in the sequel.

Sure, it's not the level of game-to-game continuity you get in something like Mass Effect or The Witcher, but as someone who played through the original Infamous, I'm happy that my actions will have some impact when I revisit that world in the sequel. It's something that more sequels should do whether it be through transferring save games or Achievements/Trophies.

Infamous 2 will be available on June 7.
