Mamorukun ReCurse! hits consoles and PC this September

Mamorukun ReCurse! will land on consoles and PC this fall.

Revealed today, the game will arrive on PC (via Steam), PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch on September 25. This remaster of the 2008 title Mamorukun Curse! will include all previously released DLC characters as well as Story Mode, Arcade Mode, Challenge Courses, alternative costumes, and a new Gallery Mode. A new trailer can be seen here.

A synopsis for Mamorukun ReCurse! reads:

Dive into this modern remaster of a cult classic arcade shooter and embark on an adventure filled with breathtaking environments, bizarre creatures and bullets, to save the Netherworld and seal the gate to the World of Darkness. Players take control of Mamoru, who, after his untimely death, wakes up in The Netherworld. A brief meeting with three new friends is swiftly followed by the energetic Fululu explaining he, Mayuno, Kinya, and Beniko, are the only hope of stopping the invasion of darkness about to consume The Netherworld.

Don’t let the gorgeous, mellow aesthetic fool you - this vertical-scrolling shoot ‘em up will take you right back to the cabinet-pounding days of traditional arcade games. In Mamorukun Recurse!, the player is in control, and can make use of Curse Bullets to alter the difficulty of the game and reap in the rewards. Wipe out smaller enemies, clear projectiles from the screen, or power up larger enemies, making them harder to defeat. The greater the risk, the higher the score.
