Nintendo Details Disaster
Monolith's latest hits Japan in less than two weeks!
September 12, 2008 - Nintendo Japan shared a Disaster release date seemingly out of nowhere last week. Today, it got around to following up with new gameplay details via an official website update. It also shared new screenshots, which we've added to our media collection below.

First announced in 2006, Disaster promised to put players' survival skills to the test as they dealt with natural disasters while also fighting off ruffians. The title drew much attention due to its developer: Monolith Soft (Xenosaga, Baten Kaitos), now reborn as a Nintendo subsidiary.

The official site describes Disaster as a game where you attempt to survive disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, fires, floods, and hurricanes, all the while dealing with members of an armed group. You play as Raymond Price. Once a member of a rescue battalion, Price quit after failing to save his partner and old friend Steve during a disaster.

One year later and Raymond, now a city worker, hears of another potential disaster, this one involving an armed group who's kidnapped a girl. That girl happens to be Lisa, Steve's younger sister. Raymond heads out to save Lisa and ends up encountering earthquakes, tsunamis, fires, floods, and hurricanes in "the worst day of his life."

The site introduces three major areas of the game: surviving natural disasters, saving victims, and combating the armed group that's kidnapped Lisa.

The survival part of the gameplay involves dealing with landscapes that change following fires, tsunamis, and earthquakes. You'll have to make skillful use of the Wiimote and nunchuck here.

Monolith has given Raymond a number of motion-based moves. When your clothes catch fire, you shake both the Wiimote and nunchuck to free yourself of the flames. You can also tilt the Wiimote to reach out and grab victims who are hanging for life from a building ledge. This tilt move is also used when under water as a means of avoiding incoming obstacles.

Wiimote and nunchuck shake is also used for quick timer-style events. When earthquakes and tsunamis strike, you shake the devices as if you're running. Doing this makes Raymond run away from falling obstacles and incoming water. In some sections, you'll be prompted to raise the devices up in order to make Raymond leap over chasms.

The Z button appears to be somewhat of a hot key, which performs context sensitive actions. After inhaling too much smoke from a fire scene, you press Z to take a deep breath and restore your life. You also press Z to call out and see if anyone in your area needs help. An icon on the bottom-left side of the screen shows what action Z will perform in any given circumstance.

As you deal with the various disasters that strike, you also need to help victims. Doing so earns skill points, which can be used to build up Raymond's abilities.

Nintendo has come up with a new use for the Wiimote here: giving a heart massage. When someone has gone unconscious and you're trying to bring them back, you hold the Wiimote sideways and push down and up in time with onscreen prompts.

The game's combat system for when facing off against members of that armed group appears to be quite robust. You aim at enemies by directly pointing at the screen with the Wiimote. This puts the game into a first person aiming mode, complete with a targeting icon. You then fire with B. During combat, you can press Z to hide behind obstacles.

It's not all just shooting, though. The game also has car chase sequences in which you use the Wiimote in steering wheel mode to race through the city. A is used for your hand break, with 1 and 2 used respectively for break and acceleration.

For a look at some CG footage from the game, see Nintendo's official website. The site also has a few short gameplay clips in the player action section, highlighting the various moves detailed above.

Disaster: Day of Crisis hits the Japanese Wii on September 25.
