Red Steel proved to be an awesome title on Wii by demonstrating that it was not just for the young ones. With a sequel in the works, due in 2010, we managed to get our hands on this highly anticipated title.
Red Steel 2 offers the player a one of a kind FPS experience with its mixture of gun battles and sword fights. It now makes use of the Wii motion plus to ensure precise movements and actions. This works really well and not only does it react spot-on to the players motions, but it also manages to detect the power of the players strikes. The result? Cutting edge and exciting gameplay that will leave you a little bit sweaty when you’re done.
The visuals are unique and well put together. They carry a stylized water paint, drawing like appearance which blends in well with the atmosphere of the game.
So far, Red Steel 2 looks awesome. It’s got all the ingredients needed to please Wii owners, as well as FPS and action enthusiasts. We can’t wait to get hold of this one next year.
