First Red Steel 2 details

Posted on 15 years ago by (@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 10 Comments

The first few details on Red Steel 2 are now available, thanks to the latest Nintendo Power.

– Still in first-person
– Cell shaded graphics
– Dev team aiming for a “T” rating for the game
– “The gore just doesn’t fit for us and what we’re trying to do”
– Will not have multiplayer
– Exclusively Wii MotionPlus
– May have some dual wielding gun + sword mechanic (nothing confirmed yet)


“We’re using Mighty Flip Champs as a way to gauge fan interest, and to see how the DSiWare service performs. We’d like to do a Shantae sequel for DSiWare.” – Matt Bozon (Designer/Director)

I’d kill (not literally) to see another Shantae game. I’d be perfectly fine if the game would be released for DSiWare. Hopefully Mighty Flip Champs will actually sell, though!

Even with all of the information that has become available following CAPTIVATE 09, Capcom is teasing more surprises for E3. According to the company, two new games will be announced. This comes from Capcom’s official twitter account but unfortunately, no hints were provided as to what will be shared when the event begins. The wait will not be too long, however, as E3 starts in a little over a month.


This is a downloadable play, not a retail play. We don’t actually have any retail rights on this project. And there’s no way to get anywhere near the Wiiware filesize limit here.” – Christian Svensson, Corporate Officer/VP of Strategic Planning & Business Development

The upcoming issue of Nintendo Power promises to have the scoop on Red Steel 2. Previously, NGamer was supposed to have an exclusive on the game, but that never fell through. The next issue of Nintendo Power goes on sale May 12. Meanwhile, the magazine has put the table of contents online and reconfirms that the game will utilize Wii MotionPlus (in addition to a reconfirmation that the game still exists). You can latch onto this until information pours in: Nintendo Power says, “Finally, wielding a sword in a Wii game feels as real as you’d always dreamed!”


“I’m not afraid at all. I think it’s going to sell. If you look at the previous installment, it sold quite well, and again the Resident Evil brand is incredibly strong, and it’s known throughout the world.” – Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles’ chief producer Masachika Kawata

I’m not too concerned about the sales of Darkside Chronicles. Like Mr. Kawata said, Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles sold respectably, and considering Darkside Chronicles falls under the RE franchise, it’s a sure-fire bet that the game will do well in the market.
