The panorama retro It is more interesting every day. And not only because the old machines are still active thanks to groups that continue to preserve their legacy, but because studios appear every day that develop new features for ZX Spectrum, Commodore 64, NES, Game Boy or… NeoGeo. The legendary console SNKwhich was practically an arcade and which at the time was nicknamed the Rolls-Royce of the consoles. Today, one of those games comes to PC.
As we tell you, these works do not think that they remain a simple development and that’s it. On the contrary, practically all of them are functional on the original hardware and this title that we bring you today was born like this: as a novelty project for NeoGeo and which was distributed on a limited basis in cartridge format for both MVS and AES systems. Finding one of these units right now is practically an impossible task, unless you have a PC (and an emulator), but luckily it will come out natively.
Direct from Neo Geo to the heart of your PC
So things are, Nalua Studio (with Spanish DNA) is the name of the developer behind this game that arrives for PC and consoles. Specifically, it was released in digital stores on October 28 and is an ode to the games of the 90s and that arcade flavor that the extraordinary SNK console left on our palates. His name is Vengeance Hunters and you are going to fall in love with him as soon as you see a few seconds of his exciting gameplay.
Vengeance Hunters It is a title where the story matters, but for many it will be the least of it, because what will really attract them is its linear, pure development. beat em up and that reminds us of many of the releases that came in the 90s to NeoGeo. It is the case of Sengoku, Mutation Nation, Robo Army, Burning Fight, Ninja Commando either Ninja Combatwhere the sprites of the protagonists are gigantic and have an astonishing variety of movements.
Here the thing is that humanity is in danger and must be saved and to do so we are going to use three main characters, who can cooperate in a typical multiplayer game. coin-op (on the same PC and with two controllers or the keyboard) but with an element that completely changes what was seen in those classics of SNK. Can you imagine what it is?
The value of replayability in Vengeance Hunters
With good judgment, the boys of Nalua Studio thought it would be a good idea to add a replayability point to Vengeance Hunters and that is why they have created points within the game where, depending on what happens, this is how the adventure will end. Which means that once we have completed one side of the story, we go to the other to see what happens and, above all, see what the enemies and settings are like. Something that in the 90s was enough of an incentive to keep playing.
In addition to collectibles, achievements, etc., which give the game that modern touch that clashes head-on with a graphic aspect pixel art that suits you wonderfully. You have it available on PC, but also on PlayStation and Nintendo Switch. Take advantage!
