Developer WayForward announced, back in March of this year, that they were already working on
Shantae 5 — the latest entry in the
Shantae series, which is expected to launch for the PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, PC, and Apple Arcade.
What the developer didn't tell us, however, was the game's official release date — although they did reassure fans of the series that Shantae 5 would be releasing at some yet-to-be-determined date in 2019.
Now, WayForward has just announced that
Shantae 5 is now officially being renamed to
Shantae and the Seven Sirens, and they have even shared some in-game screenshots to get players excited. The developer also revealed that Shantae's new adventure will take her to a tropical destination, where she'll run into new allies, enemies, and — of course — new dances and transformations.
Take a look:
Shantae and the Seven Sirens sends the belly-dancing, hair-whipping, half-genie hero to a tropical island where Shantae and her friends encounter other Half-Genie allies, but they soon learn there’s trouble in paradise. As Shantae gets caught up in the island’s sinister secrets, she’ll use all-new dance abilities and instant-transformation Fusion Magic to explore the nonlinear, interconnected world where she’ll visit multiple towns, overcome treacherous labyrinths, and battle dastardly bosses.
Shantae and the Seven Sirens still doesn't have an official release date but is expected to release for the PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, PC, and Apple Arcade.
