Absurd Hybrid Action Shooter Wanted: Dead Hopes To Win Your Heart On Valentine’s Day

Wanted: Dead is a fun, over-the-top action game with lots of humor. First announced last fall, the game comes from Soliel Ltd, developer of the upcoming Valkyrie Elysium, and consists of Ninja Gaiden and Dead or Alive alumni. With those credentials, it’s little surprise that Wanted: Dead looks absolutely bonkers.

Story centers around Lt. Hannah Stone from Hong Kong, who is a Zombie Unit member. She and her squad must get to the bottom of a corporate conspiracy, but the game doesn’t appear to be nearly as serious as its premise lets on. Gameplay blends stylish swordplay with explosive gunplay as players slice and/or shoot through gang members, mercenaries, and other foes in an adventure that looks ridiculous. This trailer shows anime cutscenes and rhythm music gameplay. It also features cute cats.
