The Agent managed to retake the generators from the Cell, even when he was almost overwhelmed when the previous Agents from the first game found and attacked him. This forced the Agency to send out their newest and better-equipped Agent to combat both the terrorists and the Freaks. However, Cell took control of Project Sunburst's generators before the Agency could use the weapon. The Agency tried to stop this epidemic by building Project Sunburst, a weapon that used sunlight to destroy Freaks. Cell's leader and former Agency scientist, named Catalina Thorne, released a deadly strain of the "Freak" virus that infected many citizens and turned them into mindless monsters called Freaks. While organized crime has been quelled in Pacific City, a terrorist group calling themselves 'Cell' started a revolt to overthrow the Agency, which has taken control of the city. The sequel takes place 10 years after the events of the first game. A trailer for Crackdown 2 was released at the 2009 E3 Conference. Microsoft however still owned the intellectual property of Crackdown, and they hired fellow Scottish development company Ruffian Games to create the game.
