Sega and Platinum Games have released first screens of their upcoming third-person shooter Vanquish, the new action title from Resident Evil and God Hand director Shinji Mikami.
The "speedy" shooter—as clearly evidenced by the employ of motion blur—with a "high-tension battle system" is bound for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 this year (http://kotaku.com/5484474/resident-evil-creators-new-game-out-this-year), pegged for a winter release, at least in Japan. Vanquish has just about everything you'd need from a current generation shooter: bad-ass armor, big guns and plenty of sparks. Throw in some fast paced melee combat and you might have another great action game from Platinum.
Our first in-game look at Vanquish is much more action-oriented than the original debut trailer (http://kotaku.com/5459346/introducing-vanquish-a-new-game-from-the-creator-of-resident-evil), a mix of live action and CG.
