Godfather 2 to Feature RTS View

It is no surprise that a Godfather sequel is in the works, but the fact that it will feature RTS-like options is quite surprising. Revealed at a recent investor meeting by EA CEO John Riccitello, Godfather 2 will allow gamers to control their mafia empire from the streets or from an RTS-like top-down view.

“You can play [Godfather 2] both at the street level, much like a GTA-style game, but you can also play it top-down, almost like you’re in an RTS, controlling the strategy of the boroughs so you can see what’s going on,” disclosed Riccitello.

No other information on the game was revealed. The game is expected for the PS3, Xbox 360, PC and Wii sometime next year.
