Ikaruga Launching May 29th on Nintendo Switch

Nicalis today announced the return of Ikaruga, the vertical shooter from Japanese game developer Treasure. Nicalis and Treasure have joined forces to introduce Ikaruga to modern players in the updated version for Nintendo Switch, releasing May 29th for $14.99.

Ikaruga on Nintendo Switch features both single-player and two-player (local) cooperative modes, as well as global leaderboards that can be accessed online for tracking high scores. Ikaruga can be played in the traditional horizontal mode on Nintendo Switch, or flipped vertically for arcade-style “TATE” mode action.
