Wanted: Dead from Japanese developer Soleil revealed a stunning new trailer at Tokyo Game Show, showing off the game's fast-paced GunFu-style combat, decapitating sword finishers, and various mini-games. Oh, and did I mention how brutally incredible the combat appears to be? Soleil features talent who have worked on combat in games such as Devil May Cry and Bayonetta - and does it ever shine through in this new trailer.
In Wanted: Dead, players will assume the role of Lt. Hannah Stone, who must lead her squad across a deadly cyberpunk version of Hong Kong. A variety of weaponry is on offer, from assault rifles to grenade launchers and of course - swords.
Wanted: Dead launches on February 14th for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Check out the new Tokyo Game Show trailer below:
