Ahead of Soleil and and 110 Industries’ release of Wanted: Dead, IGN has scored the game’s launch trailer, which boasts just what you’d expect from the talent behind Ninja Gaiden: plenty of swordplay, gunplay, and bloody action. Of course, unlike the trailer that explained the game’s combat, the launch trailer for Wanted: Dead puts in the needed story elements.
Wanted: Dead is a hybrid slasher/shooter that follows a week in life of the Zombie Unit, an elite Hong Kong police squad on a mission to uncover a major corporate conspiracy. You play as Lt. Hannah Stone, a hardboiled Hong Kong cop who must slash her way through mercenaries, gang members and private military contractors in order to uncover a major corporate conspiracy.
In addition to using your sword to slice up foes with over 80 unique finishing moves, you’ve also got your standard array of guns, including assault rifles, SMGs, LMGs and grenade launchers. This is all set against a cyberpunk backdrop that features advanced weaponry and “lo-tech 90s retro futurism”.
Wanted: Dead will be available on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and the Xbox Series on February 14th. And if you’re wanting to put the extra money down, there’s still the Collector’s Edition of the game that can be had from Amazon for either PlayStation or Xbox.
