A few months ahead of its February release, Konami revealed the cover for Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance via their Facebook page, featuring Raiden, the cybernetic protagonist of the game, slashing through an enemy, much like you’ll be doing in the full game. Those interested can find a video of the full demo here.

Thankfully, it also avoids the now infamous trope of “chin down, eyes up,” which so many other covers have decide to use (read: Bioshock Infinite).

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance dices its way to store shelves February 19th, 2013, on PS3 and Xbox 360.
