CHICAGO, July 20, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- iiRcade Inc., a premium home arcade cabinet that allows gamers of all ages to play their favorite retro and modern games in arcade style at home, is adding eight games initially developed by Visco Corporation and officially licensed by PixelHeart (the new IP owner of all Visco catalog) to the iiRcade platform.
The eight titles that will soon be coming to the iiRcade store include: Galmedes, Ganryu, Breaker's Revenge, Goal! Goal! Goal!, Ashura Blaster, Blocken, Panic Road and Captain Tomaday.
"Visco has made excellent arcade games since the early 80s and we're excited to work with PixelHeart to bring more great titles to the iiRcade," said Jong Shin, founder & CEO of iiRcade.
Visco was founded in 1982 and have developed video games for several platforms, including the arcades, Nintendo Entertainment System, Nintendo 64 and Neo Geo.
More details on each game, all of which are the arcade versions of these games:
Galmedes (Retro, 1992) – A vertical 2D shooter arcade game that was released only in Japan where the player takes control of a spaceship to save the Galmedia people from a Gastonian invasion.
Ganryu (Retro, 1999) - A side-scrolling hack and slash action-platformer where the players take control of either Miyamoto Musashi or Suzume through five stages set in Japan to defeat a resurrected Sasaki Kojirō and his legion of evil ninjas and monsters from terrorizing the city of Kyoto.
Breakers Revenge (Retro, 1998)- A competitive fighting game that is the sequel to Breakers, which was released two years prior in 1996. The matches follow the standard one-on-one, best of two-of-three format like most fighting games and features ten playable characters.
