Once Cole enters the town, the trailer shows one of his adversaries, Bertrand, the leader of Militia.http://ps3.ign.com/objects/038/038010.html

The trailer ends showing that the environments are destructible like in the first episode of the series and that The Beast followed Cole to New Marais.
When Nate Fox was asked about the new powers Cole McGrath will have in inFamous 2 he answered:
"We’re making the game to experience what it’s like to be a superhero and that’s about having these awesome abilities and getting new ones is exciting. We’re going to keep giving you powers at a very brisk rate because it feels so good, but we’re also starting the game off with a lot more powers than you did in the first game."http://www.nowgamer.com/features/804/infamous-2-interview-nate-fox-mathias-lorenz?o=2#listing
