The Ultimate Edition of the Legendary Shooter Takes Aim with a Digital and Physical Release in Time for the Holidays!

Karlstad, Sweden – November 5, 2024 – 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 clear for take-off, arriving on PS4™, PS5™ and Nintendo® Switch on December 5, 2024.

Available physically on PS5™ and Nintendo® Switch™, digitally on PS4, PS5 and Nintendo Switch, with digital versions on Xbox and for PC via Steam (published by City Connection), Under Defeat presents the ultimate version of the frenetic shooter, arriving in the west complete with DLC content installed, previously only available in Japan.

Set in an alternative history where all-out war has erupted, development of this new release falls into the capable hands of City Connection, under supervision by Takehiro Eda and Zerodiv Fukushima Factory, well known in the shooter community for their high-quality ports of classic games.

A popular arcade shooter from G.rev, Under Defeat originally released in 2005 and attracted a legion of fans thanks to its high-octane gameplay, as one or two players assume control of a heavily armed helicopter, taking on a non-stop assault of fighters, played across a semi-isometric playfield, with the unique ability to tilt shots left or right when attacking your enemy. Renowned for its explosive 3D graphics and high intensity gameplay, Under Defeat features no less than three game modes offering high levels of replayability, all of which have been integrated under supervision of G.rev.

Arcade Mode faithfully replicates the original arcade experience, with a 4:3 ratio and a pseudo vertical screen. New Order Mode adapts the game for modern displays, transforming the adrenaline packed shooting action to widescreen 16:9 ratio, and New Order Mode+ brings a host of additional elements to the game, not least being 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.

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