Ubisoft plans to release Red Steel 2 exclusively on Wii this autumn.

The sequel's key addition is Wii MotionPlus support, which Ubisoft reckons will make the sword-fighting and gun-shooting much more fun. The Wii remote add-on can gauge the power of sword thrusts as well as their accuracy, apparently.
