jp House of the Dead - Scarlet Dawn

House of the Dead - Scarlet Dawn9 years after The House of the Dead EX, Sega releases at last a HOTD game: The House of the Dead - Scarlet Dawn. The story takes place after the events of The House of the Dead 4 and the main characters are Ryan Taylor (James Taylor's brother) and Kate Green (already featured in The House of the Dead 4). There are 5 missions. The gamplay includes many features from the previous titles such as hostages and civilians to rescue (as in House of the Dead 1 & 2) and "save your partner" sequences as in House of the Dead III, well-know ennemies as The Chariot that is back in damaged form but with new attacks and branching paths prompted the same way as in The House of the Dead III. The game has two game modes: Normal and Master. In normal mode, different weapons are used for specific moments of the game. The Master mode is more difficult but you start with 2 weapons of your choice out of 6 (shotgun, flamethrower, grenade launcher, hand grenade, laser gun and rocket launcher). In the Japanese version, an Aime card is required to unlock the Master mode. The Aime card allows you to take part in nationwide ranking and win trophies. This new episode displays the largest crowds of zombies ever seen in a House of the Dead game, perfectly animated through Unreal Engine 4. The House of the Dead - Scarlet Dawn is playable in a theather cabinet featuring an air canon, 5.1 surround sound, and vibrating seats and floor. The game controller looks a bit like an Apache-SMG with recoil effect. It has two handles, a second trigger and a switch to change weapons. The controller uses an unique vibration technology producing realistric recoil feeling: by controlling the frequency to the vibration unit, the controller generates the right type of recoil that feels natural for the kind of weapon used in the game. The cabinet also features a button to lower the volume of explosions. Sega also scheduled an occidental release in November! The House of the Dead - Scarlet Dawn will be present on Sega’s booth at IAAPA from 13th to 16th November.
