Following the events of the first game in the series, Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days feature unstoppable criminals through a shooter game as they once again find themselves thrust into a situation rapidly spiralling out of a control. This video game provides players with both single and multi-player options. Time has passed since the events of the first game, and Kane and Lynch have gone their separate ways to establish their own places in the world. While neither of the two protagonists has fully given up crime, Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days shows the characters having moved into more stable positions than the first game. Lynch is offered a seemingly simple deal in this shooter game, which leads him to contact Kane for backup, where things begin to fall apart almost immediately. The effects of a single action explode around the characters in this video game as they fight to survive the consequences of their actions.
