New Lupin Game Takes A Hint From Metal Gear Solid

I thought Lupin the Third: The Greatest Brain Battle in History was just a series of brain teasers. A Lupin version of Professor Layton, if you will. It’s not. There’s a whole sneaking game that links the IQ missions together.

As Lupin, you jump with the B button, push crates, trigger switches, and sneak past guards to steal treasure. All of this takes place on 2D maps, which makes it stand out from other stealth games.

Part puzzle solving, part sneaking, and part brain teasers. That’s Lupin the Third: The Greatest Brain Battle in History. Oh, and part Fujiko Mine. There’s a mini-game where you massage her. The Nintendo DS game comes out in Japan on February 11. Check out a trailer and TV commercial on the official site.
