Red Steel 2 is a single player first-person shooter that allows
the player to blend Samurai bushido ethics with the blade, with the
over-the-top gun combat. A Wii exclusive, action is set in a fictional,
yet immersive and edgy Western setting and utilizes optional Wii
MotionPlus technology to add precision to players actions both with the
sword and the gun. This precision of motion allows everything from
turning the sword into both a cutting and blunt weapon, to blocking
bullets with single strokes as players exact revenge on a rival clan.
Story In Red Steel 2
Wild West gunplay and Samurai skill with the blade collide
head on. Set in a desert-bound, high-tech metropolis a
swordsman with no name is nearly all that is left of the once powerful
Kusagari-clan. A clan known as "the Jackals", lead by one
known as "Payne", are responsible and now it is the
Swordsman's duty and your to avenge the fallen Kusagari.
Gameplay Red Steel 2 is a single player
first-person shooter developed exclusively for Wii and designed to
utilize the Wii Remote's optional MotionPlus technology. Players will
pick up the Wii Remote and swing it freely as the sword on-screen
follows their precise movement – and even measures the strength of their
swing. With this added ability of the Wii MotionPlus to sense the
strength of a swing, you will literally be able to make an impact on
your adversaries through power and precision and even engage multiple
pistol-packing enemies at once, deflecting bullets with precise sword
strokes. Along with less stylish actions, players rack up points through
executing combos, finishing moves and other actions as members of the
rival Jackal clan are eliminated. Additional abilities and weapons are
earned or are available for purchase as victories pile up.
