Fuse pre-orders net character and weapon skins, team perk
If you pre-order Insomniac’s latest effort Fuse, you’ll score a couple of neat bonuses. Although most seem to be purely cosmetic – Hyperion Prototype skins for each of your characters and weapons – the last one is a team perk called Quickdraw which speeds up one-handed weapons use. Could be useful, although its the unique weapons powered by the titular fuse you’ll utilise the most I imagine. Visit the co-op shooter’s site for more information. Fuse is due on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in March 2013.
Thanks, Joystiq.
