Heavy Metal: F.A.K.K.² (FAKK2) is a third person shooter computer game made by Ritual Entertainment in 2000. A sequel to the Heavy Metal 2000 animated movie, the game stars Julie in her quest to save her home planet of Eden from GITH, an ancient entity seeking to conquer the universe. Using a variety of weapons, Julie must now fight off GITH's forces while at the same time uncovering a secret hidden deep within the planet.
In a first for the genre, FAKK2 allows players to pair up and use two weapons at the same time depending on the situation - for example, sword and shield for maximum defense, sword and UZI for both range and melee capability, or dual-wield UZIs for maximum firepower. Players can also block enemy attacks and execute powerful combo moves to deal even deadlier blows to their enemies.
Throughout the game, Julie travels to a number of unique and memorable locations, including Eden itself, the Mooagly swamps and the Blood Temple. Enemies are just as varied, ranging from the bear-like Grawlix and walking plants to the deadly Fleshbinder creatures.
Powered by the venerable Quake III Arena engine along with Ritual's own enhancements, FAKK2 delivers stunning visual and, in fact, was awarded the European Entertainment award ETAINA for Best Graphics in a Computer Game in late 2000.
