While Sony has yet to announce multiplayer details for Resistance: Burning Skies, we do know that it will contain an online mode. Today, it was revealed by IGN that at one point the official Burning Skies page on PlayStation.com contained information on multiplayer before being hastily removed. Luckily, an IGN reader pulled the pertinent information, and according to what he pulled it will contain: “competitive eight-player online multiplayer across six unique maps and three modes” with a minimum of two-players over wifi. Game’s out on Vita May 29 in the US and May 30 in Europe.

Soy has released the first trailer story for Resistance Burning Skies which follows New York fireman Tom Riley as a first responder to what turns out to be a Chimeran invasion of the US instead of kids playing with matches. Set chronologically between Resistance: Fall of Man and Resistance 2, the trailer provides a glimpse of the happenings as well as a few of the new weapons and a new Chimera boss – the Executioner. This beast is “a powerful Chimera class with a massive cannon for an arm, and definitely won’t go down as easily as your standard Hybrid.” Watch it below. More information on the game and its multiplayer component is expected next month.

Sony announced the subtitle for its Resistance game on Vita and it’s called Burning Skies. The game takes place during the Chimera invasion of the US seen in Resistance 2, and a new cover system in the game is automated and it doesn’t lock to the player.
