Despite popular opinion, Rygar: The Battle of Argus isn't a sequel to the PS2's Rygar: The Legendary Adventure. Rather, it's going to be a "Wii edition" much like what Capcom did to Resident Evil 4. Tecmo is porting the 2002 title to the Wii, full with redesigned characters and enemies, and Wii remote support to make all the Greco Roman action that much more intense.
If you haven't had the chance to get to know Rygar before, just think of Captain America, only de-incarnated back into the Greek and Roman mythology. See, Rygar's main weapon is the Diskarmor, and with it he gets to bash some Titan (i.e. Titanic?) butt. Yes, the reception for the original Rygar title was rather lukewarm, but it did hold some promise for the "epic fun" fanbase. But judging from this batch of screenshots, maybe this Wii edition will fulfill that promise.
Here, we see Rygar doing his Greco Roman acrobatics, faced with a couple of baddies, including a boss named Hekatonkeil (AKA Hecatonchieres). The battle here looks fierce - some might say of God of War proportions, even. Check it out!
