Just Cause 2 employs a new version of the Avalanche Engine, Avalanche Engine 2.0, which is an updated version of the engine used in Just Cause.  The game will be set on the other side of the world, compared to Just Cause, which is on the fictional tropical island of Panau in Southeast Asia. Rico Rodriguez will return as the protagonist, aiming to overthrow the evil dictator Pandak "Baby" Panay and confront his former boss, Tom Sheldon.

Benchmark Results: Just Cause 2 does better on AMD video cards from our experience and that proved true again here today. The AMD Radeon HD 6850 was able to perform better than the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 470! The CrossFire performance from matching two cards together was stellar.
