Product Description
Travis Touchdown returns in the Wii's most subversive and adult-themed action game. No longer the world's top assassin, Travis is out for revenge in a sequel that both pays homage to and mocks video games, anime and pop culture in general.

At the heart of the game is the best lightsabre simulator never made, with some of the best motion controls on the Wii. This time there are many different "beam katana" to choose from, as you take on dozens of cannon fodder goons at a time and a procession of (literally) insane bosses.

The sequel also smoothes out some of the complaints from the original with no more open world city to get lost in and much better mini-games, now based on classic '80s style video games. You can also play as characters other than Travis for the first time, as the game's plot gets simultaneously darker and more outrageous.

Key Features
  • Heroic Action: Deconstructionist classic and kick-ass action game combine, as your campaign of revenge takes you through the ranks of the United Assassins Association.
  • Assassin Wars: Switch between four different "beam katana" types instantly, from the heavy but powerful Peony to the dual-wielded duo of the Rose Nasty.
  • Boss Fight: Take on some of the weirdest bosses in gaming history - from giant robot cheerleaders to a crazed Russian cosmonaut.
  • 8-bit Action: All-new mini-games parody 2D games of old as you earn money delivering pizza in an old school racer or train at the gym in a homage to button basher Track & Field.
  • Two More Heroes: Play as new characters Shinobu and Henry, each with their own very different abilities and weapons.
