Saros delivers Returnal 2 in all but name

Housemarque's Returnal remains one of the best PS5 games. Built to kill, raised to die, and fine-tuned to annoy the shit out me while dragging me back in for yet another go at  2AM.  Not-a-sequel Saros ropes in my one of my favourite actors Rahul Kohli into the mix with proper shields, greater weapons freedom, Indian-styled visuals, and borrowing  Xenon 2: Megablast's palette and violence.  Saros is set on Carcosa, a shape-shifting, hostile alien planet.

Irem arcade collection coming to Evercade

 If there's one game that says 80's shooter, it is R-Type, or maybe Raiden, but probably R-Type! The sheer size and alien-ness of those enemies made the art of endless magazine covers and became a fixture in gamers' imaginations ever since. 

And that epic shooter is coming Evercade's way as part of a top notch collection of titles in Irem Arcade 1. Along with 1982's Moon Patrol with the genius vertical and horizontal weapons, there's classy-looking submarine shooter In the Hunt and Battle Chopper with its in-level upgrade shop gimmick. Add to that the swish of Lightning Swords and early American Football game 10 Yard Fight - an epic collection. 



All the games are 1 or 2 players, so good for the Evercade VS, and this epic cart will be available for pre-order in September, arriving Winter (hoping for no more chip-shortage enforced delays!). 

Currently playing on my Vita/PS3/PS4/PS5
