Zangeki no Reginleiv[a] is a 2010 action video game developed by Sandlot and published by Nintendo for the Wii exclusively in Japan. The story, which is based on Norse mythology, follows the divine warriors Freyr and Freyja in their war against the Jötunn, which heralds the coming of Ragnarok. Gameplay is mission-based, following one of the two protagonists as they fight hordes of enemies. Missions can be completed either in single-playing or in four-player co-op. Along with standard controls, the game supported the Wii MotionPlus expansion.
Development of Zangeki no Reginleiv began in 2006, though the concept was pitched to Nintendo before the Wii's launch. The world and characters' Norse origins were chosen due to the system's uncertain visual identity. The last year of production was turbulent due to requests from Nintendo about the controls and inclusion of co-op. It was the first Nintendo-published game given the "D" rating by Japan's CERO rating system. The game was among the best-selling Wii titles of the year in Japan, but was met with mixed reviews in both Japan and overseas.
