Red Steel 2 in the Works

By Scott Barkman / Monday, 28 July 2008

Ubisoft's Executive Director Alain Corre sat down with Gameindustry.biz during last weeks E3 conference and had a few things to say about the now official Red Steel and its sequel. "Red Steel 2 has been in development for many months now, and this new device will help us be even more precise in what we do with the product. The Red Steel brand is strong -- I think we released it on year one, and that people understood that it was a first try on new technology, technology that wasn't completely finished," "And our game tried to grab the best out of it, and was a bit rushed to be sure to offer something in year one to Wii consumers. But Red Steel is still selling well -- at a lower price of course, but still it's in the top 30 or 40 in every country on Wii...What was missing from Red Steel though was the preciseness of the sabre and with this new device I think it will change the experience." Motion Plus will be on store shelves in Spring '09 meaning we should be slashing up baddies in true 1:1 motion shortly thereafter. Via: Gameindustry.biz
