Light-gun arcade game converted exclusively for Wii



Ghost Squad is a shooter designed exclusively for Wii, based on the light gun enabled arcade shooter of the same name.

Within a squad of four operatives, players will have to traverse three different mission locations, each comprising of multiple levels, with the possibility of unlocking over 25 weapons as they progress. Each level has a series of alternate routes, providing players with varying challenges as enemies ambush from unexpected and surprising hideouts. Weapon selection is varied across a wide range of weapon types from machine guns, submachine guns, pistols, sniper rifles, shotguns, and even crossbows.

The story revolves around the Ghost Squad, which is a Special Forces unit established in strict secrecy by the U.N. to combat terrorism and carry out special highly-classified missions without leaving a trace. As an elite member of the Ghost Squad, players will complete missions such as eliminating terrorist groups, releasing hostages, deactivating bombs, and even rescuing the US President when terrorists hijack Air Force One!

The Wii-mote will act as your weapon, just like the light-gun did in the original arcade game.







Check out these key features:

* 4 gameplay modes – Includes the full arcade version of Ghost Squad, a Multiplayer mode for 1-4 players and more * 3 dangerous missions to complete - with multiple levels that increase in difficulty as the player progresses.

* 25 different tactical weapons to unlock and use during operations
