Hello everyone. I am Matt Bozon, director of the Shantae series. Today I would like to fill you with stimulating news about Shantae Advance: a risky revolution and make more details about the project!
If you know a series of Shantae games, you may have heard that the original Shantae game had an unfinished continuation that has never seen the featherlight of day. Shantae Advance: Risky revolution is this long -term continuation. The original production ended in 2004, leaving the game only half -ended – but the story did not end there.
Long -term genie adventure
Twenty years later, the original Shantae Advance band was re -connected thanks to WayForward and Limited Run Games. We opened our archives, delved into senior files and decided to complete the project in the original code base using the tools of the past era. It was the work of love, maintenance and improvisation. Now the project is finally completed after more than two decades and will be “Ret-2” on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
So is Shantae Advance: a risky revolution is an senior game or a modern game? Is this game No. 2 in the series? Is the game No. 6? Great questions. First of all, it is a completely modern, never released Shantae game, which was completed in 2025. But canonically this is the second game in the series. The story takes place immediately after the events of Shantae 1, but before risky revenge. The general style of the game is based on lessons pulled out of all previous Shantae efforts. Fighting and platform are rapid and snappy, writing and humor are on the point, and the elements of quality of life are in line with up-to-date series.
As for the functions, the game contains three independent experiences; First of all, there is a up-to-date version built for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, which contains portrait graphics, user and cinema interface. The second is a classic mode, which retains all pixel works from 2004 in the original resolution and can be played as an independent game-effective bonus content. The third is the battle mode, which is a local game for a party from two to four players, in which players try to play each other and collect power, navigating the rotary arena.
New Shanae costumes
But wait, there is more. All of the above are included in the standard edition, but we also offer Deluxe edition, which contains three exclusive costumes created especially for fans. See Shantae, as you never saw her – in her costume Hunter Relix, a high -voltage costume and Sizzle Armor costume. These costumes not only change ghosts in the Shantae world, but also change its high resolution dialog portraits and the properties of its magical attacks. Thanks to the Deluxe edition, all three of these costumes are available from the very beginning. Let’s cover:
Hunter’s costume relic is inspired by senior friends of Geezer Uncle Mimica, Hunters Relic Hunters, who appear clearly in the game. In the case of this costume, we wondered what would happen if Shantae Cosplay was as a uncle Mimica. She would definitely like to make her own changes. What do you think Wearing this full adventurous Getup ensures constant strengthening of the magic Shantae Pike Ball.
The high voltage costume grants the energy of energy energy to the magic of the Shantae electric storm. Contemporary style and holographic pony are as senseless as possible – up to the graphic text “1994” on the legs of the pants – which means that Shantae was created. We thought it would be nice to give her a outfit inspired by technical clothing with Dayglow colors.
The last – and in this case – at least – is a sizzling costume of armor. This impressive “swimsuit” armor is a significant augment in the magic of Shantae’s Fire Ball. This design is inspired by the armor of the anime bikini from the 80s, with fluorescent reds, dragons dragons and shiny stones and bombs. Shantae pony even turns into fire.
So you have-all details about the completely modern content of the luxury edition for Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution. Both the standard edition and the Deluxe edition will be available for purchase and download on August 19 – less than a month. After 20 years, to get this game in your hands, I can’t believe it will eventually happen. I hope you are all just as excited about playing this game. Thank you for supporting this series.
