Gamersyde has for you six new screens and a brand new trailer for the game.

You can check them out through the link.

The game is out at the end of January for the PS3, 360 and PSP.

EA’s announced that composer Tyler Bates will be doing the score to Army of Two: The 40th Day.

Bates, who has scored Watchemen, 300, Halloween 2 and TV show Californication, said it was “one of the most intense games I’ve seen.”

We’ll believe you when we play the game from next January for PS3, 360 and PSP.

Press release is after the jump.

Some Army of Two: The 40th Day screens surfaced this morning out of TGS.

Kotaku has the lot.

Each shows Salem and Rios doing what they do best. Shooting stuff.

It’s out for PS3, PSP, and Xbox 360 in January.

EA has announced that Army of Two: The 40th Day has been scheduled for January 8 and 12 in the UK and US, respectively.

Originally it was slated for sometime this  summer, without a firm release date given – but now its coming in January.

However, despite the “possible” delay, those who preorder the game will get exclusive access to the multiplayer mode Extraction at launch – those who did not preorder will get to play it a month after the game ships.

Nice way to make it up to you, we suppose.

Game’s out for Xbox 360, PSP and PS3 upon release.

More dripping from Comic Con over the weekend. Army of Two: The 40th Day creative director Alex Hutchinson confirmed that the game is to feature expanded multiplayer modes over the original at the event, saying it’ll allow more than four players to get busy online.

The shooter will feature a “fully client/server” connection, with “many more modes and more people allowed to play.”

The original had three multiplayer modes and up to four players allowed.

Hit Kotaku for more. The game’s out later this year for 360 and PS3.

EA Montreal’s latest Army of Two: The 40th Day trailer – seen below – details a morality system in the title.

Basically, you press buttons to make choices in certain situations. You can be good or bad. You can make decisions as partners. Want to kill a do-gooding guard? Go ahead. But what about his goddamn family?

And that’s it. It’s out later this year.

Army of Two: The 40th Day was at the EA booth, but not everyone got their hands on it.

Therefore, D’toid has posted its impressions of the “hands-off” demo given at E3. Luckily it already knew what to expect from an earlier demo.

Apparently, it’s a chaotic game with helicopters carrying tanks slamming into buildings, people running for their lives and skyscrapers falling on top of each other while Rios and Salem shoot everything that moves.

Great stuff. Hit the link for more.

And we’re off. EA just put out 360/PS3 and PSP screens of Army of Two: The 40th Day.

A few old ones in there, but what the hey. It’s out this year.

EA put out some new Army of Two: 40th Day shots this morning.

Not much involved in the screens other than, obviously, war.

There’s a kid in there that looks a bit like Short Round. Not sure why, but E3 will likely reveal all.

Joystiq has all four shots posted. Go take a look.

After the break. There’s a lot of shooting, things blowing up and men throwing women out of buildings in it. Normal stuff.

No date on it yet. It’s down for PS3, 360 and PSP.

Reid Schneider, senior producer of Army of Two: The 40th Day, has told UK mag PSW that the team overstretched itself with the original game.

“If it’s not a core focus of the game, then it doesn’t really make sense to include it and with the first one, I think we got a little over-ambitious,” he said.

The sequel, releasing across three formats this winter, is to pull back a little compared to the first title.

“We’re trying to make something a little more grounded in reality,” Schneider added.

“You’re going to have waves of enemies and harder enemies to kill but the notion of boss fights… we did it a little bit in the first game but here we want to keep an air of credibility to the events.”

Thanks, OXM.

EA’s just officially announced Army of Two: The 40th Day.

The game is exactly as rumoured, taking place in Shanghai and featuring the same characters from the original, Rios and Salem.

From the release:

When a disaster of epic proportions strikes Shanghai, China, Rios and Salem find themselves right in the middle of it all — the wrong place, the wrong time, but the right team. A carefully orchestrated series of mysterious catastrophes is dragging Shanghai to the brink of ruin, and now the Army of Two must fight their way through ravaged city districts as they try to beat the odds and uncover the secret of the 40th Day.

PS3, 360 and PSP this “winter”.

Full thing after the break.

It’s been confirmed to VG247 by UK sources that Army of Two: The 40th Day is very real indeed.

The game’s title is exactly as described. People are playing it already, Ringo.

The EA Montreal game is to be announced this Thursday.

A ton of “rumoured” information was released last week, saying the game’s based in Shanghai.

We’ll knock the “rumour” of this one. It is true.

An anonymous source has told Joystiq that the pretty-much-certain Army of Two sequel will be called Army of Two: The 40th Day.

We should know more when EA Montreal makes its big announcement on March 12.

There’s been some very specific detail published over there. Get it after the link.
