New Screens for Metal Gear Rising: Revengenace, and a Pre-Order Bonus from GameStop (Check 'em Out Here!)

A few new screens from Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance have popped up NeoGAF, courtesy of user Prevailer, who in turn seems to have gotten them from jpgames. Check 'em out below!






To get an idea who some of these mechanical monstrosities are, check our feature here.

Additionally, if you decide to pre-order the game from GameStop, your reward will be a new skin, that sees Raiden decked out in Grey Fox garb, the original Metal Gear cyborg. The skin is likely one of many more, since Rising producer Yuji Korekado has confirmed that the game will have DLC.

If that's not enough, you could also pick up the Collector's Edition of Revengeance, which offers the game, soundtrack, steelbook case, and a sword lamp...thing, that looks like it came right out of "A Christmas Story."

And with Christmas quickly approaching, yes, I do feel as though that was a timely reference.

Rising sees Metal Gear's resident cyborg Raiden slice n' dice through metal as well as men. Set nine years after Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Raiden has since gone to work for the private military and security company, Maverick Security Consulting Inc. It's during his work with Maverick that he'll be encountering these new and formidable foes.

Though there will be some stealth elements, what Rising's creative producer, Shigenobu Matsuyama describes as "hunting stealth," Metal Gear Rising is obviously all about the action. Armed with a high frequency blade that can cut through steel like a hot knife through butter, players will use a sophisticated cutting system to command Raiden to hack n' slash through hordes of enemies, and make french fries four different ways.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is out for PS3 and XBox 360 (though not in Japan), Feb. 21. Check out the trailer below!
