As one of the most influential game developers of the 80’s arcade craze, Yu Suzuki teams up with ININ to release a brand new fantasy shooter, Air Twister, to PS4/5, XBOX, Nintendo Switch, and PC! Reminiscent of SEGA-Suzuki classics like Space Harrier, Afterburner and Out Run, Air Twister brings a refreshing and unique 3D twist to the arcade shooter genre.

Following in its arcade predecessors footsteps, Yu Suzuki designed Air Twister with a variety in levels of difficulty so that players must use skill and speed to get through challenging stages!

Set off on an epic journey with Princess Arch as she fights to save her planet from destruction! Armed with arrows that trace graceful arcs of light, she confronts invaders in her path. With more than 20 unique enemies to defeat and gorgeous stages to explore, Air Twister promises an unforgettable gaming experience.
PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC. really the whole lot.

this was previously an Apple Arcade exclusive for basically an entire year, continuing the trend of titles getting rescued from that service.
it's even getting a physical release for PS4/PS5/Switch.

ready for arcade gameplay in a surreal 70's album cover style fantasy and that soundtrack

Silently hoping for Amazing Bomberman to make the jump, too.
 
Gematsu mini interview with Yu Suzuki

With Air Twister now on its way to consoles and PC, have you added any additional content from the initial Apple Arcade release? Or are there any big differences?

Yu Suzuki, Creator: “No additional content is included.”

....

Could we possibly see additional stages or other add-ons via future downloadable content?

Suzuki: “Unfortunately we do not have anything planned at this time.”


This seems to confirm that it's pretty much a straight port of the Apple Arcade version. Still looking forward to it!

Yes, we are lucky to see this escape a subscription only service. It was great as a touch screen game though, and I have no doubt it will translate perfectly into a controller game.

I wonder if it will include touch controls on the Switch
btw, Appel Arcade has been an interesting incubator for nice Switch games
