It’s a game about ghosts (maybe) and it’s got a ton of blades (possibly) – throw in some HD visuals (definitely) and Ghost Blade HD becomes a reality. Oh, and today 2Dream have announced it’ll be coming to Xbox One, PS4, PC and Wii U…soon!
Okay, so there may not actually be many ghosts or blades included, and whilst we don’t have any confirmed release date, we do know that the 2017 release of Ghost Blade HD will be with us soon – and you should be getting hyped. Priced at £8.99/$9.99, Ghost Blade HD is an intense bullet-hell top down shoot ’em up, , one that is composed by frenetic and addictive score-based gameplay. With inspiration dating back to the classic shooters of the ’90s, it promises to hit you with old memories whilst dropping in current tones and techniques.
Edit: Ghost Blade HD is due to arrive on Xbox One, PS4 and Wii U come 28th Feb 2017. A Steam edition will drop on 8th March.
It also features an awesome 2-player mode and whilst Ghost Blade HD is easy to learn, it is relatively hard to master. And we like that.
Key features include:
- Beautiful, detailed HD Graphics
- 5 Stages with HUGE Boss Enemies with 3 difficulty levels
- 3 Player battle ships with different gun types
- Arcade-style gameplay and addictive scoring system
- 2-player local co-op mode and online Leaderboards
- 37 Trophies/Achievements
Game Description:
10,000 years ago an Artificial Intelligence known as Shira was built to protect the residents of Mars.
As time passed the AI became corrupted and Shira started to attack the Mars colonies. With no way to defend itself against “Evil Shira”, Mars calls for help. The Earth Defense Force fleet fights its way to “Evil Shira” and uses powerful lasers to destroy it. However, “Evil Shira” secretly had a backup that flees into space and takes over an abandoned space station at the outskirts of the solar system.
When the EDF notices the escape they send their bravest fighter after “Evil Shira”. You are this pilot, and your mission is to destroy “Evil Shira” before it can complete its new attack force and threaten the existence of the entire universe.
Once we’ve got that confirmed release date, we’ll be letting you know all about it. For now, a trailer can be seen below.
