3. Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance

Raiden vs Sam

A spin-off of the main Metal Gear series, Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance follows the character Raiden, a mercenary cyborg, who is on the trail of a private military company called “Desperado Enforcement”.

Raiden is out to stop them as they are instigating warfare to reap in the profits and acquire war technologies. He fights through Desperado Enforcement’s core group known as “The Winds of Destruction”, a specialized super-mercenary group, along the way.

Along with all of that, he is on the hunt to save a prime minister so that war doesn’t erupt in Africa once again.

Reasons to Play

• Story: Crazy and broken but at times so outlandish and nonsensical you have to laugh at the wild ride it puts you on.

• Combat: Swift and wild, you’ll be chopping through enemies and bosses at a lightning pace, destroying everything with powerful swings of your katana.

• Blade Mode QTE: A special Blade Mode slows the world down and activates a QTE against some foes to stop incoming attacks. It also can open up a chance to do some heavy striking. Tons of fun and very rewarding to achieve as you steal parts from other cyborgs this way.

• Blade Wolf: A smart robot that brings something extra to the field and, by all means, looks absolutely awesome. Robot dogs are really a man’s best friend.

Slash and Dash: Blade Mode offers the best in slicing technology and guarantees that your enemies will slice cleanly apart, sometimes with cybernetic goodies.

Man’s Best Robotic Friend: Blade Wolf doesn’t just look cool, he’s also full of weapons to help out Raiden!
