Pocky & Rocky Reshrined physically available through Strictly Limited Games soon

It?s been a while since we?ve seen the duo of Pocky and Rocky and while the world has changed drastically since they?ve last appeared it seems they haven?t changed at all. Pocky and Rocky Reshrined set for a 2022 release will bring the titular pair and some of their friends back onto the Nintendo Switch and PS4. Developed by NatsumeAtari (the studio behind the original titles in the series) Reshrined looks to reintroduce the world to the pair with minimal changes in design. Sporting a 16 bit look, but featuring some modern features such as an online leaderboard it will surely be a treat for someone looking for a light shooter.

The game?s publisher ININ games also revealed premium editions of the title for the European and American regions will be available through Strictly Limited Games. Contents of the Limited and Collector?s Editions will come at a later point.
