Darius Cozmic Revelation Limited Edition - (Strictly Limited Games) - (PS4)

The Darius Cozmic Revelation compilation for PlayStation 4 is the definitive package for fans of Taito's pioneering science-fiction shoot 'em up series, specifically concentrating on the later entries that moved into 3D graphics while retaining the series' core high-intensity arcade action. This collection features two main titles: an updated version of the 1997 arcade prequel, G-Darius HD, and the definitive arcade iteration of the 2010 game, DARIUSBURST: Another Chronicle EX+.

G-Darius HD takes the classic side-scrolling formula and introduces a fully 3D world, notable for its innovative Capture Ball system which allows the player's ship, the Silver Hawk, to absorb enemy mid-bosses and either use them as temporary allies or detonate them for massive damage against the game’s gargantuan, aquatic-themed mechanical bosses. This high-definition port cleans up the visuals without sacrificing the look and feel of the groundbreaking original.

Meanwhile, DARIUSBURST: Another Chronicle EX+ offers an expanded experience of the modern Darius entry, celebrated for its unique ultra-wide screen presentation that perfectly recreates the multi-monitor arcade cabinet feel. This version includes new modes and enhanced content over its initial release, supporting up to four players in local co-op and focusing on the powerful Burst Beam mechanic for tactical clearing of enemy waves.
