Space Invaders Revolution, as the name suggests, marries the vintage game play of the legendary shoot-'em up with the exciting new possibilities offered by the unique features of the Nintendo DS.

Promising a new take on the series which marks a true progression over any version before it, Space Invaders Revolution provides yet another example of Rising Star's expertise in sourcing high-quality Japanese games and bringing them to the European market. Thanks to the way Rising Star is structured, Space Invaders Revolution will be released in Europe before its Japanese debut, a precedent that Rising Star hopes to repeat with future releases.

No version of Space Invaders would be complete without a faithful reproduction of the original arcade machine and Space Invaders Revolution is no exception. With a choice of directional pad or touchscreen and stylus controls, players can steep themselves in the nostalgic wonder of the shooting game that started it all.

For those wanting a more modern challenge, there's the New Era mode. Here, the simple rules of Space Invaders are expanded and twisted into a truly modern game, bringing in puzzle elements as well as other improvements to the tried and tested formula.

The many additions and innovations present in the New Era mode promise to genuinely revolutionise one of videogaming's most loved, most recognisable and longest-enduring brands.

Features:

• Two Gameplay Modes, Classic and New Era.
• Two control methods, traditional pad and buttons or touchscreen.
• 20 real-world locations with three rounds each, totalling 60 individual levels.
• 13 types of invader, including Giant Invaders and Shadow Invaders.
• Five power-ups, some of which combo to produce even more power.
