News: Complete with fire-breathing motion controls.
Would you believe that, after Ubisoft and Konami, budget games publisher D3 is one of the biggest supporters of the Wii? Well they're not quite there yet, but they are several exclusive titles for the system, including the recently announced Dragon Blade: Wrath of Fire.
Dragon Blade is being prepped for a release this fall by Land Ho and it is a third-person beat 'em up designed around the Wiimote. According to D3, "players will utilize an intuitively designed, two-handed Wii control scheme and use both arms simultaneously to emulate the dragon's arms, wings, tail, fire and more." Awesome.
УDragon Blade is one the few hack Сn slash games that will be available on the Wii this fall and the development team, Land Ho, has done a great job to fully utilize the Wii controls so players will experience parallel movement between themselves and the game avatar like never before,Ф said Yoji Takenaka, executive vice president and chief operations officer, D3PA. УWith its arcade style pick-up and play gameplay, we expect Dragon Blade to appeal to gamers of all ages.Ф
