We have known for awhile that Red Steel would have local 4-player multiplayer due to some advertisments that popped up. Now we have some information on the multiplayer gameplay modes.

You can expect to get your friends together and play one of three modes, Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, and Mission mode. No need to go into either deathmatch modes, as they need no explanation. The real juicy info comes from Mission mode...which sounds plain awesome.

When playing Mission Mode, one of the player's Wiimotes will ring...yes, the speaker will ring like a phone. You press the 1 button to answer it, and are given specific details on a mission you must complete. One of the objectives is to hunt down a mystery player who must be killed in order to win. You find this player by following the beeps coming from your Wiimote. The faster the beeps, the closer you are to the person. Of course, the mystery person is supposed to stay alive as long as possible to win.

How awesome does that multiplayer mode sound?! I cannot wait to try this one out. Thanks to Ivo, Zenman and Etteh for the heads up.
