Rising Star Games has today revealed its line-up for 2009. Consisting of over ten exciting new titles from Japan, the selection includes casual titles Harvest Fishing, Animal Kororo and Mah-Jongg, highly anticipated Role-Playing Games Steal Princess, My World My Way and Avalon Code as well as the impressive Rygar: The Battle of Argus and Valhalla Knights: Eldar Saga. The 2009 line-up will also continue to be promoted under the 'Home of Japanese Games' campaign, which runs for the duration of the year.
Rygar, which is now available for Nintendo Switch Online, did a lot of things right, particularly when it came to creating an immersive world that felt interconnected.
Was a pretty cool game back then. And for those that didn't play it, the PS2 game was a pretty cool update of the franchise. Still got that one.
Could see a 2D update made like Bionic Commando got from Capcom.

This.
I have Bionic Commando Rearmed on both PSN and Steam. Would be nice to see Rygar get the same treatment. Or even like the recent Strider reboot.
I remember renting this and finishing it in one day. Thoroughly engrossing. Would like to see a follow up to this.
The only arcade game that after playing the crap out of it at a laundromat. I was able to finish, from start to the end on one quarter. Love that game.
glad they added it to switch online...haven't played it yet though..need to fire it up
Hamster Corporation, the company behind the Ninja Jajamaru-kun game for 3DS, will bring Japanese arcade games to PlayStation 4 this spring.
"In a surprising turn of events, it seems that Valhalla Knights is listed for free on the PlayStation Store. "
For those wondering, this doesn't require PlayStation Plus and WILL work on the Vita! Really no excuse not to download it.
Okay, now they are handing out free games to everyone... Got it! I have to update my memory card asap.
Not free for me.. :C
Indian PSN gets same stuff as EU.
Can anyone from EU confirm if they are able to get this?

Thank you for the information. It seems like a kind gesture from XSeed games to get people interested in the series. If I enjoy it enough I'll definitely check out Valhalla Knights 3.
