Ubisoft has announced that Red Steel 2, the sequel to the Wii launch title, is being developed by Ubisoft Paris and will be available for the 2009 holiday season.
Ubisoft states that Red Steel 2 will return with an artistic style and flair created just for Wii. The game is set in a desert-bound, high-tech metropolis and promises a revolution in the action-fighting genre, taking full advantage of the capabilities of the Wii MotionPlus accessory. Player movements will be faithfully replicated on-screen, putting the emphasis on “swinging, shooting and fun!” Wii MotionPlus will even be able to sense the strength of a swing.
“Red Steel was a unique opportunity for Ubisoft to work in tandem with Nintendo to create a title exclusively for the launch of the Wii console,” said John Parkes, EMEA marketing director at Ubisoft. “Red Steel 2 is another milestone for the company as it is the first Ubisoft title with full Wii MotionPlus integration.”
Red Steel 2 will be released this Holiday season for Wii.
