The remastered version of the shoot-’em-up game titled “R-Type Delta HD Boosted” is set to debut digitally on platforms including PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam starting November 20 in the western regions. This release coincides with its Japanese launch date, as confirmed by publisher Clear River Games. Additionally, physical editions of the game will be available for PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch.
Here is an overview of the game, via Clear River Games:
First introduced in 1998 for PlayStation and praised by many, the critically acclaimed shoot-’em-up is back after being polished up and enhanced. With improved high-definition graphics, a fresh opening scene, reworked music, and numerous updates to make it compatible with contemporary technology, this dark sci-fi gem shines brighter than ever.
In the year 2163, after defeating the Bydo Empire, the R9 was salvaged and held within an Earth-orbiting space station. The world heaved a collective sigh of relief, but their peace was interrupted in 2164 when mysterious objects plummeted from the sky, electronic weapons malfunctioned, and a ‘destruction unit’ hidden with the R9 unexpectedly went on a rampage, heading for Earth and initiating devastation. To quell the chaos, they deployed the experimental prototype “R9 Delta” – signaling the start of another battle against the Bydo.
In a seamless 60 frames per second performance, R-Type Delta HD Boosted offers a versatile gaming experience tailored for modern players. Each session allows you to toggle between standard and high-definition graphics at will. The iconic soundtrack has been revitalized with fresh arrangements by Masahiko Ishida (R-Type II), USP (R-Type Delta), and Chris Hulsbeck (R-Type for C64 and Amiga). Additionally, players can customize their screen size, choose from various difficulty levels, and even practice in a new training mode before taking on the Bydo Empire.
