The ‘bullet hell’ shmup fanbase has grown from strength-to-strength in recent years, with some of the most creative works the genre has ever seen having been borne from the confidence of Ikaruga‘s western release on GameCube back in 2003. Since then, shmup games have been launched across a huge variety of formats and editions, including SEGA Mega-Drive and Dreamcast titles decades after any official support for the consoles has ended.
PlayAsia.com has previously offered a number of limited Nintendo Switch exclusives, including Dimension Drive and the forthcoming Shikhondo Soul Eater.
