Hot off the heels of Raiden Fighter Aces, UFO is passing along the next iteration of the series, Raiden IV. The Xbox 360 version of the arcade shooter brings a handful of new modes to the table, including boss rush, score attack and an original mode that lays out a large span of difficulty modes to cater to gamers of any skill. Leaderboards, galleries and downloadable content also made an appearance in the home version, which will carry over to the domestic version.
To provide further insight on the title, Chong Ahn, senior product manager and producer at UFO, took some time to answer some questions about the title, as well as the arcade shooting genre overall.
Carlos writes "Not so long ago we brought you our thoughts on the last set of backwards compatible titles to arrive on Xbox One as Microsoft closed in on the 400 Xbox backwards compatible games figure. This week has seen another fresh batch of games brought back, which now pushes that number up and over the four century mark. But, the big question is this - are they worth heading back to or should they be left in the past?"
Who cares if they're worth the return? They're just adding games. That's what they do and it's admirable.
Caladrius, the shoot-em-up with artwork by Suzuhito Yasuda (Devil Survivor) is coming to the PlayStation 3, along with Raiden IV.
GNT: Had a fast-paced and frantic day? Perhaps you need to keep that energy going? If you want fast-paced insanity, there’s no better place to go than this interesting shooter.
I’m talking about Raiden IV for the XBox 360.
