Cute shooter Takotan heading the to the Vita

Out now on other platforms but coming to the Vita soon, Takotan from Eastasiasoft is a cute shooter with a chubby little octopus as the hero. His world has been taken over by an alien invasion, and only he can rescue humanity from the incoming alien hordes. 

Update: three sets of Vita trophy listings are now live, so should be out soon, not sure if its Cross Buy, so don't grab the PS4 version by mistake. The Asia/US release date is confirmed as 23 October, with an EU date to follow. 


Takotan is a retro shoot’em up inspired by 16-bit classics. Save the world from alien invasion by shooting and dodging through 8 action-packed levels with sinister bosses under water, in space and elsewhere! There are plenty of power-ups including lasers, bowling balls and ninja stars to take down enemies and defend the planet.
