Get into your scrubs and save lives as Trauma Center: New Blood
launches on Wii. Offering an all-new immersive storyline, Trauma
Center: New Blood will challenge
your
medical know-how, introduce you to two brand new characters and
encourage participation in Co-Operative gameplay, as you head to the
operating theatre to combat the latest deadly virus - Stigma. So get
ready to put your steady hands to the test and polish up on your
operating skills as Trauma Center: New Blood goes on sale
across Europe on 7th November 2008.
Trauma Center: New Blood welcomes two new playable
characters, Markus Vaughn and Valerie Blaylock, both highly skilled
doctors soon whisked to L.A. to investigate the epidemic of a new
deadly disease - Stigma. Caduceus, the international organisation
that treats and researches new diseases is called in; however they
struggle to stop the disease from taking more lives. Markus and
Valerie soon come to play an important part in unravelling a web of
deceit and betrayal that could lead to lethal consequences.
Throughout Trauma Center: New Blood players are put in
numerous enthralling situations where patients’ lives hang in the
balance. Players
must
strategically and skilfully use a set of medical instruments to
operate on a wide variety of illnesses. Keeping one eye on the
clock, operations must be successfully completed within a set time
before advancing to the next chapter in the story. Budding surgeons
can also choose the Difficulty Level. But beware, a harder skill
level will see an increase in damage caused if mistakes are made and
the stabiliser medication becomes less effective!
Using a combination of the Wii Remote and Nunchuk brings realism to
a whole new level as players enjoy the lifelike use of surgical
instruments, for example by simulating the real-life motion of using
a defibrillator with both controllers. In addition to this, players
can also look forward to some new procedures to further their
medical knowledge. Manual CPR and skin grafting can now be attempted
as well as a variety of new medications available to inject.
The Wii Remote is used to wield surgical tools with precision,
making every operation a truly nerve-wracking process. In case of
emergency, each character has a unique Healing Touch at their
disposal. This allows players to briefly slow down time or
stabilise
the patient's vitals. It can only be performed once per operation
and requires the player to swiftly and precisely draw a five-point
star on the screen. Manual dexterity is further tested in tense
operations where the Wii Remote must be carefully twisted to put
broken bones back together. With more emphasis on realistic
operations, Trauma Center: New Blood will have your heart
racing as you struggle to save the lives of your ill-fated patients.
Trauma Center: New Blood will also see two players able to
team up in almost every operation using Co-Operative Mode. Combine
your talents with a friend or family member to save lives together
as you operate simultaneously, each selecting instruments from your
own set. Players can also compare their healing skills with the rest
of the world as they upload scores to Leaderboards via the Nintendo
Wi-Fi Connection. |
