Scarlet Vengeance, a fanatical terrorist faction, is searching for a powerful ancient artifact to unleash its devastating power on the planet’s most historic peace conference. But before these villains can find the artifact and thrust the world into darkness, they must kidnap the one person who knows its location: beautiful US archaeologist Jennifer Guile.

The only thing standing between these fanatics and Jennifer is you – Jonathan Kane: The Protector!

Packed with action, suspense, intrigue, love and betrayal, Jonathan Kane: The Protector is a searing first-person shooter featuring intense and visceral fire-fights combined with stunning stealth interludes. When faced with an immutable malevolence like the terrorist group, Scarlet Vengeance, you are the planet’s only hope for survival! The thrilling plot unravels through eye-popping in-game and cinematic cutscenes that immerse you in a living, breathing world where danger lurks around every corner.

The Protector centers on the exploits of two vastly different characters – hardened British mercenary Jonathan Kane and refined and beautiful US archaeologist Jennifer Guile. After a ten-year estrangement, the duo is reunited when Jennifer’s father – a leading archaeologist – is murdered by a new terrorist organization called Scarlet Vengeance, which plans to find and use a powerful Aztec artifact to destroy a historic Middle Eastern peace summit.

When the terrorists’ attentions turn to Jennifer – the only person alive who knows the location of the artifact – Kane is forced to protect her. Thrown together in extreme circumstances the duo must overcome their differences and us their unique skills to thwart the dastardly terrorist plot.

Their adventures lead them on a globetrotting journey through an eclectic range of locales, which range from the New York subway to the very heart of a stunning, mythical Aztec city. Unlike uninhabited worlds of many other shooters, The Protector environments teem with detail, life, and humor and are packed with civilians, commuters and workers with whom the player can interact.

As the danger escalates Kane and Jennifer learn more about Scarlet Vengeance’s plan, their old feelings for one another begin to resurface. But when an unexpected power intervenes in their quest, Kane is forced to choose between business and love in a climactic finale with two vastly different endings.

• The player can use the environment as cover, lean out from behind it and shoot at enemies with minimal exposure, and even blind fire around corners when severely pinned down.
• Superb world physics where the player is able to shoot enemies – and be shot- through thin walls, adding a further tactical element.
• Enemies intelligently seek out and utilize cover – just like the player – making for some intense and tactically challenging combat.
• The player can disarm enemies by shooting the weapons from their hands, leaving the AI vulnerable. Once an enemy has been disarmed, they must either reach for a sidearm or run for cover – both of which take time.
• Enemies can grab civilians and use them as human shields, requiring the player to shoot with even greater precision in order to save the innocent.
• Fight the forces of Scarlet Vengeance, ranging from cannon fodder recruits to the faction’s elite guard as you seek to find the ancient and powerful artifact before the terrorists do.
• Titanic boss battles with a difference. Highly skilled and intelligent super enemies rather than stereotypical giants with endless hit points and just one or two weak spots.
• No more searching for unrealistic health packs and armor upgrades. Take too much damage too quickly and it’s game over. Find some cover and you’ll slowly recover.
• Numerous entertaining puzzles to solve, which challenge but never frustrate.
