Godzilla: Unleashed on Wii

Santa Cruz Games in collaboration with Pipeworks Software are set to bring back Godzilla back onto gaming TV screens worldwide, and with a roar.

Since the Godzilla films had been officially put to sleep in 2004 to try and renew interest in the franchise, it did not mean the same could be said about the gaming adventures of Tokyo’s favourite green giant.

A total of 23 familiar faces (+ two new characters) will be on the menu to wreak havoc across the globe where familiar territory will provide the games backdrop and selectable areas. One of the areas is rumoured to be Sidney - an area best remembered in Godzilla: Final Wars where both the original Godzilla and his unpopular American namesake duked it out. The 23 monsters (+ new characters) will be categorised into 4 different factions: "Earth Defenders", "Aliens", "Global Defense Forces" and “Unknown”. Even though the monsters will be affiliated with their faction they will still have their own individual agenda in the storyline of the game.

Godzilla: Unleashed is being made specifically to be played by the Wii control system, giving this Monster Mash a more exclusive establishment on Nintendo’s wonder console. Godzilla: Unleashed is set for an Autumn release, and we'll cover it once it's ready. After the last film franchise, for us it's a case of 'the only way is up!'
