Wanted: Dead for Windows

Hybrid first-person shooter/action game

Wanted: Dead takes players on a dark journey through the world of organized crime and violence. The main character is tasked with uncovering a Hong Kong-based corporate conspiracy. However, this will be no easy task due to the sheer amount of opposition that she must face.

Developed by the same team behind the groundbreaking game Naruto To Buroto: Shinobi Striker, this platform offers up a unique combination of violence alongside an in-depth storyline.

The inclusion of hack-and-slash combat

There are many instances when players will be forced to fight other NPCs. Each scene is impressively choreographed, and it is possible to employ fatal finishing moves similar to games like Mortal Kombat. More than 50 can be performed. Likewise, there are a number of weapons that can be used during these scenes.

Impressively rendered cutscenes

Another attractive quality of Wanted: Dead involves the sheer detail associated with the numerous cutscenes that are interspersed throughout the main storyline. Flavored with a decidedly noir appeal, these provide stark glimpses into a unique fictional Hong Kong underworld.

Third-person shooting options

While melee combat is featured prominently throughout this game, there are plenty of instances when players will be immersed in third-person shooting battles. Weapons include (but are not limited to) machine guns, grenade launchers, and assault rifles. The progressive nature of Wanted: Dead will unlock more options as levels become more difficult.

A gripping blend of action, violence, and suspense

Wanted: Dead combines traditional hack-and-slash mechanics with breathtaking graphics and a Hollywood-like storyline. Therefore, it is ideally suited for fans of combat, as well as those who enjoy solving convoluted mysteries. In many ways, this game can be thought of as a Hong Kong-based version of Max Payne.
