The original Wii sword and gun game is making a comeback for the holiday season of 2009 with Ubisoft’s announcement ofRed Steel 2.
Set in a high-tech desert city, this Ubisoft Paris-devleoped game will use Nintendo’s new add-on, the WiiMotion Plus. This will be Ubisoft’s first title with support for the device. It is said that even your swing strength will be sensed, with the “emphasis on swinging, shooting and fun.”
“Red Steelwas a unique opportunity for Ubisoft to work in tandem with Nintendo to create a title exclusively for the launch of the Wii console,” said Tony Key, senior vice president of sales and marketing US at Ubisoft. “Red Steel 2is another milestone for the company as it is the first Ubisoft title with full Wii MotionPlus integration.”
