Anarchy Reigns
Game » consists of 9 releases. Released Jul 05, 2012
In a distant, chaotic future, cyborgs beat the crap out of each other in this multiplayer-heavy 3D beat 'em up from the developers of MadWorld and Bayonetta.
Platinum's New Game Is Actually Called Anarchy Reigns
In addition to dropping this title news this morning, Sega made a passing mention of two of the game's online modes and, in the process, might have revealed the direction Platinum Games is shooting for. Tag Team and Battle Royal modes were confirmed, leading me to believe, at least, that Platinum wants to give the game a wrestling-ish flavor.
Oh, and three screens are available for your viewing now, too. This is undeniably a Platinum Games joint.
Expect Anarchy Reigns to hit store shelves in Fall 2011 for the Xbox 360 and PS3.

If there's anyone who knows how to make strong melee gameplay, its the former developers of God Hand.

I'm starting to notice a pattern here:
- MadWorld
- Bayonetta
- Vanquish
- Anarchy Reigns
All action games of one type or another that target mature audiences with a healthy dose of ridiculous, versus:
- Viewtiful Joe/Viewtiful Joe 2
- Okami
- God Hand
Games of different styles for different audiences.
As much as I like Platinum's insane action titles, it'd be nice to see more of the old Clover show up.
From the couple of screenshots I've seen, I'm liking it's look. After Vanquish's disappointment, I'm wary though.
" I'm starting to notice a pattern here:But pre-Clover, they made:

- Viewtiful Joe/Viewtiful Joe 2
- Okami
- God Hand
- Resident Evil 1/2/4
- Devil May Cry
- P.N.03
I think they just do whatever the hell they want, and I honestly like it that way. It's not like they've ever disappointed (not, at least, when Mikami or Kamiya have directed).
Apparently when she joined the Terran's ghost program." When did Miranda die her hair blond? "
Edit: @Hailinel said:
" @Laketown said:The less said about Infinite Space, the better in my opinion. But it does seem like the workload wasn't with Platinum as that game is nothing like any of their priors (in terms of both type of game and quality of product)." @Hailinel: didn't they work on infinite space with another dev though? "They did, though I have no idea how that workload was split. "
I second that. I can't really place my finger on it, but I like the Japanese title better. I think it's because it sounds like a cliche action hero name." Max Anarchy was a better title. "
I'm excited about this new Platinum joint, hopefully the melee combat will be pretty ridiculous, a la God Hand. It'll be cool to see this developer take a crack at crafting an online experience, especially something a little different from the norm.
Do Platinum's game sell well? I haven't bought a single one of them, but I still wish them all the best.
" I'm starting to notice a pattern here:Surely you do not mean to imply that God Hand was not an action game that targets mature audiences with a healthy dose of ridiculous.

SURELY
I'd like to slam that ass! But this game looks
nothing like MadWorld! Guess the controversy
is over as I'm not really interested in games that
play up tits & ass for game play. I want to play
games, not masturbate!
Platinum Games announced the North American title yesterday too, idk why you didn't include that yestrday.. :S
They spend so much time and effort modeling that ass in bayonetta. There is no question that ass will show up every so often in Platinum games =)
I guess I like the show too much but I can't help but think it's about the Anarchy sisters.
