In July of this year, developer WayForward announced that they were re-releasing Shantae: Risky's Revenge - Director's Cut for the Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and Windows 10, and that fans of the Shantae series should expect to see the game launching this Fall.
The original Shantae: Risky's Revenge was released for the Nintendo DS through the DSiWare back in 2010, and the Director's Cut version was first released in 2014, which added Unlockable Magic Mode that gave players an alternate costume; other than that, it is literally the exact same version.
It is also worth mentioning that Shantae: Risky's Revenge - Director's Cut is already available on PlayStation 4 and Steam, and players can easily get it for a mere $9.99 USD from the aforementioned platforms' respective online stores.
Much like previous entries in the series, Shantae: Risky's Revenge - Director's Cut sees players taking control of Half-Genie Shantae and exploring colourful, and vibrant levels, and transforming into varied creatures with unique abilities that make traversing the game's world a breeze.
Today we have great news for fans of the Shantae series, as WayForward has released a gameplay trailer for Shantae: Risky's Revenge - Director's Cut, letting everybody know that the classic, and critically acclaimed 2D platformer has finally become available digitally for the Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and Windows 10.
