Soldier of Fortune 2
Double Helix is a video game created by Raven
Software a sequel to Soldier of Fortune. It was developed using the Quake 3
Team Arena engine. Once again, Raven hired John Mullins to act as a consultant on
the game. Based on comments and criticisms of the original game, Raven Software
developed Soldier of Fortune 2 to be a more "realistic" game, with
tactical shooters like Operation Flashpoint Cold War Crisis and Tom Clancy's
Rainbow Six as inspirations rather than Quake. A sequel titled Soldier of
Fortune: Payback, made by Cauldron HQ was released for Microsoft Windows,
PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2007.
The theme of the sequel is germ
warfare, as the mercenary Mullins and his new partner Madeline Taylor travel to
Colombia to investigate a viral outbreak in a small town, only to link it to a
shadowy organization called Prometheus. The virus, called Romulus, is followed
by a computer virus called Remus which is programmed to delete files on any
computer in the world, in this case, files relating to Prometheus and Romulus,
so an anti-virus cannot be formulated. Prometheus then plans to blackmail the
G8 countries at a summit in Switzerland for billions of dollars. It is revealed
throughout the course of the game that a mole inside The Shop may be feeding
information to the terrorists.
