The open-world action-adventureInFamousmade a thunderous debut during thePlayStation 3era. Since then, the series has expanded into multiple titles, introducing a mix of new and familiar characters. To celebrate the franchise, we’ll guide you through all theInFamousgames in their release order.
InFamous (2009)
The electrifyingInFamousseries began with the tales of Cole MacGrath, an ordinary man who unexpectedly inherits Electrokinesis powers. He soon faces the harsh realities of this newfound ability when it causes a catastrophic explosion in the great Empire City.
As a player, the power to shape the narrative ofInFamousis in your hands. How will you wield this electrical-based power? Will you use it for good, or will you succumb to the dark side? Every decision, no matter how small, can lead to significant consequences, both for Cole and the citizens of Empire City. The journey is entirely yours to shape, and you might just uncover some new powers along the way.
InFamous 2 (2011)
Cole returns once more in the sequel,InFamous 2. This time, he’s no rookie when it comes to his abilities, becoming the electrical superhero (or villain?) he was born to be. Decisions are still prominent in this narrative, along with some new enemies to tackle.
The game’s major antagonist, The Beast, threatens to annihilate the world, and you must choose which side you’re on: good or evil. Fortunately, you won’t have to go at it alone. You’ll be aided by two new allies, each with their unique skills and abilities that can help you in your quest. Take advantage of their skills and uncover the multiple endings ofInFamous 2.
InFamous: Festival of Blood (2011)
InFamous: Festival of Bloodis a stand-alone entry that takes a different turn from its predecessors. In this game, Cole has transformed into a vampire, mixing the abilities of the undead with his electrical powers. He only has eight hours to save his soul and the city of New Marias from the vampire takeover.
Festival of Bloodshould definitely be on your radar if you’re looking for a horror take on theInFamousseries. Everything about it just screams terror, from its darkly-themed environment to its hordes of demonic creatures.
InFamous: Second Son (2014)
Cole MacGrath takes the back seat inInFamous: Second Sonas the new character, Delsin Rowe, enters the picture. Society has now turned against the superhumans, establishing the notorious Department of Unified Protection to bring them down. As a fellow superhuman, Delsin aims to thwart the D.U.P. plans and save everyone he loves in the heart of Seattle.
Like MacGrath, Rowe must make some harsh decisions. These choices will determine the fate of the city and unearth the mysterious truth behind his powers. You’ll also come upon various distinct abilities, giving you the freedom to pick the one that most suits your style.
InFamous: First Light (2014)
Abigail “Fetch” Walker takes the stage inInFamous: First Light, where we learn about her origins beforeSecond Son. Her unique Neon abilities give her the power of light, igniting her attacks and quickening her movements. The story begins during her time in prison after being locked up for her superhuman skills.
Once Abigail fights her way out of the cell, she must survive through the frosty Curdan Cay’s harsh terrains. She now has a new mission to seek revenge on those who got her in prison in the first place.
Currently,First Lightis the last entry in theInFamousseries. There have always been some rumors regarding another title, but Sucker Punch has since shifted its focus to its hit game,Ghost of Tsushima. Hopefully, one day, we’ll get a new story forInFamousto continue the journey that Cole first started.
