Sci-fi game Vanquish was originally inspired by a 1970s Japanese anime. It was also supposed to star a remote controlled robot.

And the robot would change depending on which pilot was controlling it. Each of the three pilots had their own speciality, such as shooting, melee, or hover and snipe. âThis single robot was capable of being battle effective in a variety of situations,â Mikami adds.
The concept was snuffed out early in the development process â vanquished, if you will.
But Mikami, who created the Resident Evil series, says that rejected ideas âcan end up finding their way back, like in a sequel for instance.â
The game designer recently set up his own studio in Tokyo and is working on action game Shadows of the Damned. He, however, doesnât know what heâs making next. âConsidering how fickle I am, it will probably end up being a game completely different from Vanquish.â Will it have a remote controlled robot?
