Vanquish (Japanese: ヴァンキッシュ Hepburn: Vankisshu) is an action third-person shooter video game developed by PlatinumGames and published by Sega for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 video game consoles. The game began in development in 2007 and was released worldwide in October 2010. A Windows version was released on May 25, 2017.
The game is notable for introducing several innovations to the 3D shooter genre, including a fast-paced style of gameplay reminiscent of 2D bullet hell shooters, beat 'em up elements, and an original sliding-boost mechanic.
Vanquish received a positive critical reaction upon release, with critics praising the game's fast-paced action, innovations to the shooter genre, boss battles and visual style, while criticizing the game's writing, voice acting and overall short length of the campaign.
Directed by Resident Evil survival horror master Shinji Mikami.
The game's director, Shinji Mikami, stated that Vanquish's graphics were partially inspired by Casshern, a 1970's anime television series by Tatsunoko Production. Mikami also stated that the game design itself was inspired by Casshern. Mikami originally wanted to create a game just like Casshern, but with the addition of guns, since Mikami had already previously created a brawler with God Hand. However, while making Vanquish a shooter, Mikami still wanted to maintain Casshern's "feeling of speed" which is the reason he introduced the sliding-boost mechanic. Vanquish uses the Havok physics engine.
Full of American militaristic tripe but excellent faced-paced adrenaline pumping gameplay.
