Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance Trailer

Update: Trailer posted below.

A new look at Konami's upcoming slice-and-dice action game Metal Gear Rising has leaked online in advance of tonight's VGA awards. In addition to showing off the title addendum "Revengeance," the clip also reveals that the game is a collaboration between Kojima Productions and Platinum Games.

The video is a far cry from the watermelon-slicing action demonstrated back at E3 2010, with footage of Raiden cutting through man and machine with ease. And, of course, the series' patented pseudoscience pops up in a quick reference to electrolytes. Perhaps the nanites are thirsty from all those flips.

Make sure you tune in to the VGAs on Spike TV, MTV 2 and spike.com tonight starting at 7 PM CT to check out the trailer for yourself.

    In New York the people talk and try to make us rhyme

  • When he throws the giant robot in the air and runs along it's arm... WHOA. O_O
  • revenge with a vengeance... wat?
  • This looks like Rising will have more in common with Bayonetta than Metal Gear.

    Also the text in the video looks very 80s Transformers.
  • OMG this is da s**t! Im not a fan of metal gear solid, but rising is looking awesome

  • Interesting take. My interest died out way back in MGS2, but I still like to see what's going on in the series. Looks... different. And by different, I mean not at all like what I remember. And by not at all, I mean unrecognizable. And by...

    EDIT: Got it, co-designed by Platinum. Makes sense now. Overly action-packed action.
