Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance – Jack the Ripper Trailer January 20, 2013
Posted by Maniac in Game News.add a comment
It is an understatement to call what I’m about to show you guys a trailer. It is a tradition for Konami to premiere a new Metal Gear Solid game with a trailer unlike anything we had seen before. In 2000, the first trailer for Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty was released and clocked in at just under ten minutes. It featured a mixture of in-game cinematics and gameplay. In comparison, other companies would show no more than 90 seconds and show gameplay clips cut to rock music.
Well, we’re in the last few weeks leading up to the release of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, a spin-off game from the Metal Gear Solid series featuring RAIDEN, the hero of Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty and now is the perfect time for Konami to break out a seven minute trailer showing what this game has in store for players.
The following trailer is referred to as the Jack the Ripper trailer. For those of you familiar with the story of MGS2, Jack the Ripper was the nickname that Raiden earned as a child soldier when he served under Solidus. As an adult, his childhood was extremely traumatic to him and it was only by repressing those memories was he able to cope. After the events of MGS2, he could no longer ignore his childhood memories, and this trailer shows that something has happened to him during the course of this new game that could cause him to become even more dangerous than he was before. For those of you who need a reminder how dangerous he was, in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, he took out several walking tanks using only a sword.
Take a look and see for yourselves what he’s in for next.
Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is coming February 19th, 2013 to the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3.
