There are over 20 levels with missions in seven campaigns, set in Europe, Africa and Asia where the players visit many historical areas. Detailed mission briefings and full load-out inventory selection for each new campaign/mission. Players may choose from a roster of 30 men to comprise up to a four man team. The campaign mode in Hidden & Dangerous 2 allows for a single-player, playing as a lone wolf or a team leader. A real time strategy mechanic also allows players to control events for staged sequential tactical maneuvers or through real time overhead command. The missions are based on sandbox style gameplay where players are free to roam a map and pursue objectives usually at their leisure and choice of sequence. However most of the game takes liberty with the historical time and place of SAS operations. Some of the missions are modeled on real SAS exploits. The expansion pack Sabre Squadron adds missions in France, Libya and Sicily. The variety of locales include Norway, Libya, a Norwegian fjord, Burma, Austria, France and Czechoslovakia. Mission types include, espionage, sabotage, search and destroy, town liberation, prisoner rescue, retrieval of enemy officers and documents, partisan assistance and assassination. The ability to take POWs, added enhanced stealth options for the player which include the acquisition of enemy uniforms. Gameplay elements such as the vocal commands, plan or real-time map control, vehicle usage, equipment selection and the first person mechanic were significantly enhanced from the original. The game's LS3D engine was used by the game Mafia. It follows the same concept as the original tactical first/ third-person shooter. Hidden & Dangerous 2, like its predecessor, focuses on the British Special Air Service during the Second World War.
