Sci-fi shooters aren’t exactly sparse on the Xbox One, but unlike most, Solar Shifter EX wants to rain bullet hell down on you. Can you handle it?
Using ‘The Phase Shifter’ ship you’ll be dodging bullets galore and blasting them right back at the enemies, in the sci-fi bullet hell shooter Solar Shifter EX. The action never stops in this intense shooter, with challenging bosses awaiting your little ship’s arrival. It does have one trick up its sleeve though, in the form of a ‘shift’ which is a teleporting ability to whip you out of harm’s way in an instant, or to throw you back into the fight.
Available now on Xbox One, Solar Shifter EX can be picked up for only £7.99, however, if you pop back later today we can help you to make up your mind with our review.
