Incoming wikipedia copypasta!
Plot: The game takes place a few months after the events of Driv3r. It is revealed that both Tanner and Jericho survived the shootout in Istanbul. In the game's trailer, it is revealed that since then, both men have recovered and Jericho has escaped to San Francisco, while Tanner has pursued him there. Jericho is shown being transported in the back of a prison truck, but manages to escape with a vial of acid hidden within his mouth. He overpowers the guards, and hijacks the truck. Tanner and Tobias witness this from Tanner's car, pursuing Jericho as he causes havoc on the streets of the city. Tanner ends up in front of Jericho in an alleyway, and gets pushed in front of a tractor trailer. A hard crash occurs, putting him into a coma. The game will take place in Tanner's coma dream
The Wii version will have a different storyline. The storyline will be about Tanner's early years as a police officer. Tanner will be out to avenge the death of his partner by going undercover. The magazine confirms that Tobias Jones, and Solomon Caine will appear in the game.
Gameplay:
A new feature is Shift, which allows Tanner to shift from a car into another car and continue the mission. The Shift option is not unlimited however, so the player has to recharge the Shift meter by doing things such as power slides, big jumps and driving into oncoming traffic. Shift must also be upgraded from time to time, so the player can shift into more distant cars and other parts of the city. One of the inspirations for Shift comes from Google Earth. The game is also being described as a "return to the roots" to the series as the ability to get out of the car, which was introduced in Driver 2, has been removed as the developers felt that too many games have this kind of feature already and "it wasn't desirable for us to just copy that exact mechanic.".With Shift, the player can also start missions. Using Shift, however, is not obligated, so the player can finish the game without shifting into any other car. The film director mode, which was absent from Parallel Lines, will also return, and players can share their videos online. The game will run at 60 frames per second
