Prototype is a completely new kind of open-world/action game, featuring a rich storyline filled with deadly shape-shifting action, 'Deceive or Destroy' gameplay, and a conspiracy 40 years in the making. In Prototype, players take control of Alex Mercer - a dark, genetically mutated shape-shifter with no memory of his past, hell-bent on solving the mystery of his existence as he tears through a densely populated New York City moving with Parkour-style fluidity and consuming anything that gets in his way. 'Deceive or Destroy' gameplay allows gamers the choice to either blend in with the population and covertly progress through the story, or fully unleash Alex's powers, and move through New York City like a walking slaughterhouse, taking control of military vehicles, and causing destruction at every turn.

In development at Radical Entertainment, Prototype is well under way to be one of this year's hit titles for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft®, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and Games for Windows, and is currently rated "RP" (Rating Pending) by the ESRB.
