The Black Baron has received a bit of a makeover since his MadWorld days for Anarchy Reigns.

Oh, and on her giant spiked club, too.

The Black Baron from MadWorld enters the arena in Anarchy Reigns.

Keen to keep people talking about the game, Sega and PlatinumGames have released a third trailer for their upcoming online multiplayer brawler, Anarchy Reigns.

Vanquish, the fourth game from the Sega and Platinum Games partnership, sold 820,000 copies worldwide since its release between October 19, 2010 and the end of 2010.

PlatinumGames next title has an ice queen armed with snow spikes and the obligitory ninja.

Sega announced Max Anarchy for North America and Europe under a slightly different name. Introducing Anarchy Reigns, a multiplayer brawler for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

These were “cut scenes” all right. Also: see what Vanquish looks like with missing textures and no shaders.

PlatinumGames included voice-acting in English, Japanese, French, Italian, German, and Spanish.

If this video doesn’t sell you on Vanquish, it isn’t likely anything else will.

Enemy animator on Vanquish, Takaaki Yamaguchi, blogs about the importance of treating Vanquish as an action game, rather than a shooter.

Vanquish features quite the star-studded line-up of composers, including Masafumi Takada of God Hand fame and Masakazu Sugimori, responsible for the incredible Ace Attorney soundtrack.
