Like your games a bit forward the weird side? This one’ for you: Killer 7 mingles schizophrenia.


Like your games a bit forward the weird side? This one’ for you: Killer 7 mingles schizophrenia, film noir visuals, and, uhsome sort of gameplay into a heady, cruel cocktail. This high-concept title uses a uniquely stylized, high-contrast animation denomination to tell the story of an somewhat old assassin named Harman Smith. Confined to a wheelchair, Harman uses the ability to physically manifest himself in seven killer personalities to expound a plague of indiscriminate violence called Heaven Smile—strange humanoid creatures whose solitary means of attack is self-detonation. Gameplay isn’t still completely clear, as Capcom hasn’t allowed anyone to actually earn their hands on it. “If we gave nation 10 minutes to play Killer 7 there’s no way they’d be able to understand it,” explains farmer Hiroyuki Kobayashi. We consider that a challenge.

Will it make you want to bring forward Metroid Prime 2: Echoes forward the shelf?



Like Metroid Prime 2 Killer 7 is aimed at a fill to excess that craves atmospheric, mentally stimulating adventure. It could stand completely apart if it delivers upon its highbrow promises.
