Metal Gear Rising Revengeance takes the renowned Metal Gear franchise into exciting new territory by focusing on delivering an all-new action experience unlike anything that has come before. With the world-class development team at Platinum Games, Metal Gear Rising Revengeance provides players with a fresh synergetic experience that combines the best elements of pure action and epic storytelling, all within the expansive MG universe. The game introduces Raiden as the central character; a child soldier transformed into a half-man, half-machine cyborg ninja, equipped with a high-frequency katana blade and a soul fueled by revenge.

The Nvidia Shield Android TV exclusive experience includes all three DLC missions: Blade Wolf, Jetstream, and VR Missions. It also provides all of the customized body upgrades for Raiden, including: White Armor, Inferno Armor, Commando Armor, Raiden’s MGS4 body, and the ever-popular Cyborg Ninja!

This shouldn't be a surprise. There were a lot of games listed on their store as coming soon when they did the first presentation the Shield console thing.

In the end it has to be this way.

It runs natively rather than streamed, that's pretty cool.

Kind of weird that it's only 5GB when the PS3 version was around 20GB. The cutscenes must be heavily compressed.

Also I don't see any mentions of 60 FPS, so that's concerning.

The 360 version used noticeably compressed cutscenes compared to the PS3.

 

[Enter the Dragon Punch]

it's 30fps with drops and has some nasty screen tearing @ 1280x720

Oh, so it's Nvidia Sheild's Bayonetta PS3.

Spoiler

To be fair, I actually played and enjoyed the PS3 version of Bayonetta. But it's definitely not the best version.

Anybody want to photoshop the nvidia shield portable behind this window? - http://download.gamezone.com/uploads/image/data/1162282/article_post_width_Wii_U_rain_window.jpg

Because the portable is what I have...and it's incompatible :c

 

[PantsuJo]

Interesting. Shield is an underrated machine. Aside for the 30fps cap, is the frame rate stable?

And is the game available in Europe?

Its for Shield TV though.

Surprised Nvidia committed to this, nearly a year after it was announced for Shield TV. Crysis 3 was listed as a game for the system but removed from the website (unlike this), so I guess the port was cancelled or didn't run satisfactorily.

Not sure if this trickle of ports will do much for Nvidia, but it's clear they are trying to build a long-term, Steam like platform. But it's situations like this where you need to either have a wealth of first party studios to build compelling content for day one and beyond (like Nintendo) or good third party publisher relations and power to draw in support.

Edit: Performance is pretty dreadful, yeah: https://youtu.be/aMbNBZu9fRo?t=152

You can get 50-60 FPS out of 15W Intel Haswell 4200U with Intel HD 4400 from 2013 on this game, at 720p with settings equivalent to 360/PS3.

Heck, even Intel HD 4000 on Ivy Bridge 15W handles this better: https://youtu.be/Wo9g_qZTSqA?t=24

It's annoying seeing Nvidia big up their SoCs with claims like "desktop class performance" (they tried to say that Tegra 3 had equivalent performance to Core2Duo, it did not), and "desktop class GPU".

 

[napalmjam]

Very impressed with this game crazy that an Android box can run it

Yup. I saw a coming soon sign in the Shield TV store. Tegra X1 is a beast.

On second thought, that framerate is pretty bad :S

Looks like it actually really can't. 30 with chugging is not acceptable for this game.
