Red Hook also revealed that the first game's combat system will return, but that it would be "tuned-up" for the sequel. The developers said the sequel will employ a very different metagame structure, but opted not to reveal more about what that means. It seems players will get the chance to discover that very different metagame structure first hand in a little over a month.
