Item Description

Alex Mercer wakes up on a slab in a Gentek morgue with no memory, no pulse worth mentioning and the ability to turn his arms into blades. From there, Prototype hands you an infected Manhattan and asks a simple question: what would you do with nearly unlimited power? The answer usually involves sprinting straight up the side of a skyscraper, leaping off the roof and landing on a tank.

Radical Entertainment, the studio behind The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction, built Prototype around that same sense of physical overkill. Alex can glide, double-jump and run across the city at absurd speed, and his body becomes an arsenal: claws, a whipfist that snatches enemies from across a street, hammerfists, a massive blade and armor or shields for defense. The real hook is consumption. Alex can absorb anyone, taking their appearance and memories, so you can walk into a military base disguised as a commanding officer, call in an airstrike on the infected, and slip away before anyone notices.

Those absorbed memories also drive the story through the Web of Intrigue, a network of targets scattered across the city whose flashbacks gradually reveal the Blacklight virus, the conspiracy between Gentek and the military unit Blackwatch, and who Alex really is. Meanwhile the outbreak spreads in real time, with infected zones turning blocks of Manhattan red as hunters and mutated monsters battle soldiers in the streets. You can hijack helicopters and tanks, play the two sides against each other, or simply cause a level of chaos few open-world games allow.

Prototype launched in 2009 in the middle of a superpowered sandbox showdown with inFamous, and it was the louder, bloodier, more anarchic of the two. Its sequel recast Alex Mercer as the villain, which makes this first game the place to see him as the antihero at the center of it all, and it is still a blast to play on original Xbox 360 hardware.

About the game

Alex is himself infected by the virus, which has given him special, mutant, abilities that will evolve with time and aid him in stopping the virus.
