The story is divided into instalments called episodes. The most dangerous of these are colossal Akrid, classified as 'Category G', that contain immense amounts of T-ENG and can alter the landscape of the environment by virtue of simply existing. These new circumstances have not stalled the ongoing conflict between various human factions to gain control of the planet's supply of Thermal Energy (T-ENG), whilst the indigenous Akrid creatures have begun to metamorphosise into new, unexpected forms. III has undergone drastic changes that have produced radically different biomes across the planet. One decade on from the events of the first game, the climate of E.D.N. Versus characters can also be modified in far greater depth than in the original game, customising not only skins but a wide selection of skins for legs, the face and torso. Lost Planet 2 borrowed the online multiplayer versus modes of its predecessor, and featured new modes as well. These points can then be used to unlock costumes and attachments for the player to customize their Pirate. Once the game has been beaten on any difficulty, players are allowed to use this character for the campaign. Players will earn more points for playing in a unique manner and completing extra objectives in missions. Kenji Oguro and Jun Takeuchi announced that the game would reward players with experience points. If one player loses all of their energy, another can give them some of their energy, using a new weapon, to keep players alive. The character may also lose thermal energy by completing one entire sprint with a character (confirmed in the demo). However thermal energy is still constantly lost unless a specific ability is equipped despite the 'warmer climate'. Instead, energy can only be drained when the player pilots a VS and uses a weapon that requires energy.

This is due to the warmer climate, which can sustain T-ENG presence longer than a cold climate, which drains thermal energy bit by bit. Īlso unlike Lost Planet, Lost Planet 2 will not constantly drain players of thermal energy. Takeuchi also revealed that there would be flying VSs which feature unlimited flying time. These VSs can be controlled by one player, while two others hang on by the sides and shoot. Players will be able to ride on the sides of some VSs. Takeuchi revealed that there would be a lot more co-op based VSs. On July 24, 2009, at Comic-Con 2009, producer Jun Takeuchi held a Q&A session for fans. Recurring elements include major boss battles, extreme terrain, and the ability to pilot mechanized armor suits, known as Vital Suits (VSs). Many gameplay features from the original Lost Planet game are present.
