Natsume to Release Wild Guns Reloaded Game on Nintendo Switch

Game developer and publisher Natsume announced on Thursday that its and Natsume Atari Inc's Wild Guns Reloaded PlayStation 4 and Steam game will get a release on the Nintendo Switch early this year.

The game is a follow-up title to Natsume's Wild Guns SNES game. Natsume released Wild Guns Reloaded on the PS4 in December 2016, and on PC via Steam last July. The Switch version will have new game modes: a beginner mode and the "Boss Rush: Time Attack" mode for veterans.

Natsume describes Wild Guns Reloaded:

Wild Guns is a fast paced gallery style shooter mixing the Wild West with steampunk. Players can play as Clint, Annie, two new characters, or all together in multiplayer action! Each can jump, dive and roll to get out of the way of the barrage of bullets enemies let fly – or shoot them down with their own gun!

In Wild Guns: Reloaded, Annie has tracked down the famed bounty hunter Clint to get revenge on the Kid gang. With eight stages, each with three zones, there's plenty of bad robots to blast away. With a true arcade game feel, Wild Guns was the first sci-fi western to arrive on home consoles and, to this day, there really isn't any other game like it!

The original programmer, designer, and sound creator of the first Wild Guns game worked on Wild Guns Reloaded. The original game launched in Japan in 1994, and in North America in 1995.
