Modern version of the iconic arcade classic, SPACE INVADERS, today launched for $9.99 in the iiRcade Game Store.
CHICAGO, Aug. 19, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- iiRcade Inc., a premium home arcade console that allows gamers of all ages to play their favorite retro and modern games in a true arcade style, is pleased to announce that SPACE INVADERS INFINITY GENE ("INFINITY GENE"), officially licensed by TAITO, is now available in the iiRcade Game Store for $9.99.
INFINITY GENE starts off looking much like the original SPACE INVADERS, but then evolves into an exciting new shoot 'em up game experience.
The tracks are separated between Genetic, Adaptive, and Evolution. Genetic tracks are reminiscent of the original 8-bit arcade game, while Adaptive and Evolution tracks have a faster, fuller, more modern style.
The game features a unique soundtrack that was composed by COSIO, with extra tracks by Soundwave that will utilize iiRcade's 100W stereo sound with dual speakers along with Sound by JBL (available with iiRcade Gold Editions).
INFINITY GENE also features a BGM Player mode, where players can create their own beats and tracks.
The launch of INFINITY GENE comes two weeks after SPACE INVADERS, the legendary arcade classic that was originally released in 1978, was released in the iiRcade Game Store on August 5th.
"It was really exciting to launch the original SPACE INVADERS this month and now we're happy to follow up with INFINITY GENE," said Jong Shin, founder & CEO of iiRcade. "The audio experience alone on INFINITY GENE is worth checking out, it's a lot fun and sounds amazing on iiRcade."
The new iiRcade Gold Edition, the latest addition to iiRcade's line-up of premium home arcade consoles, is now available for $999, with four versions to choose from: Dead Cells, Dragon's Lair, SPACE INVADERS and Black Edition with Double Dragon artwork.
