WET is now available at retail stores across America for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Combining acrobatics, shooting and sword play, WET gives you the freedom to use dual pistols or your samurai sword as you take on countless enemies in a number of exotic locations around the globe.
Developed at Artificial Mind and Movement (A2M), WET throws players into a heart-pounding, adrenaline-pumping adventure of double crosses and paybacks in which they’ll take on the role of problem fixer, Rubi Malone. A gun-for-hire, Rubi agrees to fix a wealthy man’s problem by finding and bringing back his wayward son. She thinks the job is going to be cut and dry. She thought wrong.
Your mission to find the man that left you for dead will have you encountering innumerable adversaries in a variety of settings. Throughout the various cities you’ll visit – from London to Hong Kong – you’ll find yourself in spacious arenas where you will master shooting and sword play while dramatically jumping, flipping off of poles or your opponents, running on walls and sliding down ladders. Additional levels include car-hopping, Boneyard Challenges and ‘Rage Mode’, all of which add to the intense nature of this incredibly fast-paced shooter.
Featuring top-notch voice over performances from Eliza Dushku (as Rubi Malone), Malcolm McDowell (as crime lord Rupert Pelham) and Alan Cumming (as villain Christopher Sorrell) , WET offers up a perfect mix of violence and humor set against a stellar soundtrack and original score, both of which capture the game’s cool, retro-70s grindhouse vibe.
WET is a highly-stylized third person shooter that seamlessly blends gun play, sword kills and over-the-top acrobatics to create the ultimate interactive action experience. The game allows you to shoot anywhere, anytime. You will have the freedom to shoot while running, sliding down ladders, sliding across the floor, or performing any number of acrobatic moves. Featuring an ironic mix of humor and violence, unique retro film visual treatment, and original 70’s inspired music, WET is a third- person shooter experience unlike any other.
