Clear River Games, a video game publisher specialising in classic and retro games, in conjunction with Japanese publisher and developer City Connection, announced today that celebrated arcade shooter Under Defeat is now available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch.

The ultimate version of the classic arcade shooter. Under Defeat has been developed by retro port specialists City Connection, and includes DLC content previously only available in Japan. Alongside an 'Arcade Mode' that faithfully replicates the original arcade experience, a fresh 'New Order Mode' adapts the game for modern displays, while 'New Order Mode+' brings brand new elements to the game, including a 'WARNING GAUGE', which mixes up the classic shooter formula.




Originally developed by G.rev and released in arcades in 2005 before hitting the Dreamcast in 2006, Under Defeat sees players jumping into one of four combat helicopters, either solo or in two-player co-op, and shooting down waves of foes across the land, air, and sea. Players will take on tank battalions, enormous warships, and enemy aircraft across a 3D semi-isometric playfield, with the unique ability to tilt shots left or right.

Under Defeat Game Modes:
  • Arcade Mode - A faithful replication of the original arcade experience, with a 4:3 ratio and a pseudo vertical screen.
  • New Order Mode - A modern adaptation for modern displays with a widescreen 16:9 ratio.
  • New Order Mode+ - Adds brand new mechanics to the widescreen display, including a 'WARNING GAUGE', which adds a risk/reward mechanic to assist the player as they shoot, bomb and swerve through the hordes of enemy invaders.

Under Defeat comes complete with an incredible soundtrack, newly arranged by the original composer, video game music veteran Shinji Hosoe (Ridge Racer series, Tekken series, etc) and his company, Super Sweep.

Under Defeat is out now on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch.

Oh nice, I remember the dreamcast version, it looked spectacular for the time. Incredible particle and smoke effects for the console.
