Rising Star Games to Bring Akai Katana Shin to Europe in 2012
There are a lot of people out there who enjoy their Japanese games, a lot of which don’t get the pleasure of being released over in western shores. Rising Star Games is aiming to change that. Specialising in publishing games from the land of the rising sun their next project will be to bring the previously arcade-only Akai Katana Shin to European home consoles in 2012.
Akai Katana Shin has been remastered to make full use of our beloved HD screens and features gameplay which includes an amazing new mineral that everyone wants to get their hands on, a blood-thirsty emperor hell bent on taking over the world with his “blood swords” and a few phsycic powers thrown in for good measure.
“There is always something special about a CAVE game,” says Martin Defries, managing director, Rising Star Games, “and Akai Katana Shin is no exception. It’s an exceptional shooter, which looks stunning in HD, and we’re delighted to be able to give it the full Rising Star Games treatment when we release it next year.”
Akai Katana Shin is due to be released on the Xbox 360 sometime in 2012. As soon as we know more information, so will you.

By day I play video games, test video games or just simply write about them. By night I fight crime on the streets of London as a masked vigilante known only to a select few ... damn SECRET identity. Could never get the hang of that.
I've been writing about video games for about 10 years now, and playing them for even longer, starting off with a Spectrum ZX passed down to me in about 1988. Yes, I used to play games that came on cassettes. Yes, they were AWESOME!
I've been writing for God is a Geek since October 2010 and loving every minute of it, aside from that I write for my own website and work as a video game tester for Testology. So, yeah, I'm pretty much living the life of a gamer, and I don't intend stopping anytime soon thank you very much.
Unless I run out of money, then we might have a problem.
