Sega and Platinum Games announce Anarchy Reigns

Platinum Games is on something of a roll at the moment. While their last two games, Bayonetta and Vanquish were only moderate hits in terms of sales, both were well received by critics and fans, both won a handful of Game of the Year awards, and as a result the developer has something of a swagger going on. It hopes to build on that with its next title, Anarchy Reigns.

Published by Sega, the new title will be a fresh take on the brawler genre, combined with a heavy emphasis on the multiplayer aspect. The game promises several multiplayer modes with game types ranging from tag team battles, battle royals, and free-for-alls.
