Just Cause 2's lead designer, Peter Johansson, has confirmed that the Eidos action title will yet again be free of multiplayer - but that it will probably be added to future games in the series.

"It would have been simple to just jump onto the multiplayer bandwagon, but in the end we decided on designing Just Cause 2 with the focus of delivering the best single-player, free roaming experience," he said. "It's likely that Just Cause will have multiplayer in the future but only when we believe we can deliver something truly new and exciting to the multiplayer community while retaining all the core values of the game."

Just Cause 2 was recently announced by Eidos and will again be developed by Swedish studio, Avalanche.
