Like a MOSS
Look, can every shmup just eventually get a re-release on everything? Preferably on a platform that won’t eventually go defunct?
You know, I’m something of ascientistshmup collector myself, having gathered as many of these gems as possible on Steam: whereI can enjoy some of them with a vertical TATE display setup. There’s a few franchises that I can just blindly jump into and lose track of time in: like say,Raidenfor example (how convenient!).
Developer MOSS is at it again, and this time, they’re nearly ready to unleash their long-gestating Switch port ofRaiden IVon Japan. This new version is titled “Raiden IV x Mikado Remix,” and it’ll feature new musical arrangements, one of which you can hear in the brand new trailer below. They’re even getting artists like Daisuke Matsumotoof Cave fameinvolved!
Raiden IVwill arrive on the Japanese Switch eShop on April 22. There’s no word on a localization date, but it’s fairly easy to create a cross-region account and grab it if you want.Or, you may opt forRaiden IV: Overkillon Steam, which is a good adaptation that came out in 2015 on PC.
