Bandai is proud to present a new trailer from “Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone
Complex.” Featuring lightning-fast action and vibrant 3D graphics, this third-person
shooter plunges players into a cyberpunk future where Major Kusanagi and the
officers of Section 9 stand between Newport City and a host of armed-to-the-teeth
criminals.
Gamers can experience the lushly detailed anime world as the female cyborg Major
Motoko Kusanagi, her tough-as-nails partner Batou or the quadraped enforcement droid
known as Tachikoma. With over 20 minutes of beautifully rendered CGI, the “Ghost in
the Shell” game features eye-catching martial arts moves, the ability to hack into
machinery, computers, and enemy minds, and 15 different weapons, ranging from sniper
rifles to missile launchers. Players can also challenge their friends with
four-player multiplayer combat, including both team matches and battle royale.
Slated for a November 2004 release, “Ghost in the Shell: Standalone Complex” is
rated “M” for Mature and retails at $49.99.
