Get Ready for the Chimeran Invasion in Resistance: Burning Skies

Resistance: Burning Skies is the fifth title in the Resistance franchise and the first to be built from the ground up specifically for the PlayStation Vita and its unique features. The system's dual analog sticks allow for precision shots not typically seen in handheld shooters, while the system's touch screen gives players a variety of ways to attack their opponents. To help you get geared up for the game, SCEA has released two new videos detailing more of the features you'll find in the game as well as some sweet new gameplay clips. One trailer introduces you to New York firefighter Tom Riley and explains his motives for fighting off the alien invasion, while the multiplayer trailer details online play with up to 8 players across the game's 6 maps and 3 game modes. You can check out the trailers below and read on for more details!

About Resistance: Burning Skies


Taking place in the Resistance storyline between Resistance 2 and Resistance 3, Resistance: Burning Skies follows New York City firefighter Tom Riley as he experiences first-hand the initial days of the Chimeran assault across the U.S. eastern seaboard. Riley travels from city to city, searching for his family but finds himself an integral part of the battle. Riley meets other bands of survivors throughout his journey and together they must fight to save themselves and humanity.
Set in an alternate universe, Resistance: Burning Skies stays true to the franchise with unique 1950’s Americana locations, hordes of returning and never-before-seen Chimera, the signature Weapon Wheel with fan-favorite weapons, and a robust multiplayer experience. Nihilistic Software has taken advantage of the unique features of the PS Vita system to create the first true FPS experience on a portable console: dual analog sticks provide precision aiming and navigation, front touch screen functionality allows for easy to use primary and secondary weapon fire.
