Abstract

Madworld is an inventive third-person action game exclusively for the Wii.

ESRB rating

Blood and Gore, Drug Reference, Intense Violence,  


Full description

A highly stylized game filled with enough blood-soaked ultraviolence to make Malcolm McDowell blush, MadWorld drops players in the midst of a twisted sports show known as Death Watch. Created by a group of terrorists who call themselves "The Organizers," Death Watch pits competitors against one another in a gruesome, Running Man-style battle for survival. Gamers step into the role of Jack, a contestant who must master the deadly weapons found in each environment in order to advance. MadWorld makes use of comic-book-inspired black-and-white art, but players can interrupt the monochrome with frequent splashes of crimson blood and viscera. Comedic commentary narrates the over-the-top action as gamers use their Wii Remote and Nunchuk to rack up combos by thrashing enemies and performing brutal finishing moves on hulking bosses. Those looking for human competition can choose to join friends in hot seat mode for a series of violent mini-games known as "Blood Bath Challenges."

Sega's Madworld is an inventive third-person action game exclusively for Wii. Produced by Atsushi Inaba, MADWORLD has a unique black and white style depicting an incredibly sharp backdrop that straddles graphic novels and 3D worlds. As players battle opponents, they must master the use of various weapons and items found within their environment, such as chainsaws and street signs, while entertaining sports commentary adds to the third-person gameplay. With its irreverent humor and over-the-top violence, MADWORLD will deliver a unique core gaming experience currently missing on the Wii system.

The Story
Varrigan City has fallen under the control of a terrorist group known as the Organizers, and they have a rather twisted sense of fun. Under the Organizers' rule, all citizens are forced to participate in a game called "Death Watch," in which there's only one rule: Kill or be killed. Into the game steps Jack, a mysterious participant practiced at setting traps, engaging in hand-to-hand combat and other useful skills. But will Jack be able to survive Death Watch and ultimately beat the terrorists at their own brutal game?

Key Game Features:

  • Play as Jack, a mysterious participant in the Organizers' Death Watch game whose ultimate goal is to save the terrorized city
  • Explore six different areas of Varrigan City and interact with the environment, using anything in the environment, from sign posts to passing trains, to attack your enemies
  • Utilize your Wii Remote and Nunchuk to battle hand-to-hand with daggers, bats, chainsaws and other weapons while delivering brutal finishing moves
  • Watch this insane and innovative world come to life before you in a unique black-and-white graphic novel artwork style
  • Earn points in the Death Watch game for your bloodiest, most creative kills — the more points you earn, the better your chances of staying alive to save the city
  • Improve your skills and punish your opponents in a series of ultraviolent multiplayer mini games available in each level
