Red Steel 2 promo video lands on YouTube

May 5th, 2009 by Randy Nelson

Where did it come from? Who knows. What we do know is that a promotional video for Ubisoft’s recently revealed, Wii-exclusive Red Steel 2 – prefaced by a screen bearing the words “Destination PlayStation” for no logical reason — has been uploaded to YouTube. The roughly minute-and-a-half video talks up the game’s Wii MotionPlus-infused gameplay and depicts a guy (we’ll call him “Joe Gamer”) swinging away in his living room as some surprisingly good looking gameplay footage is shown.

We say “surprisingly” because it appears to be much sharper than Wii’s 480p visuals are capable of. It is nice and smooth, which is in keeping with the game’s purported 60 frames-per-second action. Pre-rendered or not, we totally dig the visual style, Ubisoft. More, please.

Get thyself an eyeful after the break.
