News R-Type Tactics I • II Cosmos is coming to Switch + PC + PS4/5

"R-Type" is a milestone in sci-fi shooter games.
A simulation game themed on space fleet battles with the R-Type worldview- that's "R-Type Tactics".

The stage is set in space and in a space fortress which has become a den of unknown organisms.
To gain an advantage in the battle with the enemy forces, you will scout out enemies and prepare the deployment and formation of your unit to fight against the opponent. You will overwhelm the enemy forces by hiding your troops in their blind spots, making full use of electronic warfare, and considering supply, characteristics of space, and so on.

it's really happening, 2 is likely getting translated to english.

there's also an (english) twitter for it, though there's nothing major in terms of news on it.

well this is certainly unexpected.

in short, the plan is to add twenty four new missions and units to the game if they reach their goal. not sure this these are the same ones mentioned when the game was first announced.

however, it should be noted that none of the backer rewards include the actual game itself. just the DLC (including exclusive bonus content for R-type final 2). which is fairly annoying.

from a recent Granzella stream. there's also the note that new info will be released in late July.

NISA (the western publisher) previously stated it would be localized in summer 2023, but that's almost certainly not happening now.

there’s also a new trailer for the game, but it’s currently only accessible through the linked live-stream. (at 29:34)
