Honestly, Devolver Digital doesn’t even really need to try to make Metal Wolf Chaos XD hilarious. On its own, Metal Wolf Chaos is one of the most unintentionally funny games ever made and just existing is enough to support a marketing campaign.

Still, Devolver’s marketing efforts that consist of just smashing together gameplay and cutscenes from the game, alongside dramatic music and effects, is genius as they contrast so effectively with the absolutely absurd premise of the game.

It’s the end of the first quarter of the 21st century and the United States is in chaos as Vice President Richard Hawk successfully leads a coup d’état against 47th president Michael Wilson.

Fortunately Michael Wilson is equipped with a state of the art mech suit and is going to bring freedom back to America… through any means possible.

Also, Devolver created a new animated trailer which perfectly encapsulates the game’s classic opening scene and line: Let’s Party!
