Gamers Evolved

Red Steel was one of the first games to be released on the Nintendo Wii and because of this it was able to receive quite a bit in sales. It is true that many gamers were not very pleased with the game. However, it was still able to offer a few good ideas that were not pulled off well thanks to the Wii remote.

But now, with the announcement of the MotionPlus add-on, Ubisoft hopes it can make good on the promises made in the first game. “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,” Ubisoft executive director Alain Corre told GamesIndustry.biz.

“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.”
