Are you excited yet about Vanquish, the third-person shoot âem up from Bayonetta and Madworld studio Platinum Games? Did we mention itâs from the guy who made God Hand? And did you see these new screen shots?
Game director Shinji Mikamiâs latest may feature familiar shooting actionâwith, apparently, a Bayonetta style âWitch Timeâ-like time-slowing effect dubbed âAugmented Reality Modeââand super-suit attired soldier Sam, but Vanquish looks like a higher-speed take on your standard action game. A look at these new Vanquish screens shows off big bosses, bad-ass futuristic knee slides and developer Platinumâs expertise with PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 hardware.
Vanquish is supposed to be out in 2010âat least in Japan.
