Rising Star Games recently announced that they will be bringing Under Defeat HD Deluxe Edition to gamers in North America and Europe this autumn, but exactly what that ‘deluxe edition’ affix stands for has been kept a closely guarded secret. Until today that is, when the publisher announced a series of special bonuses included in the retail packages.
The price tag is $26.99 which is expensive , but still cheaper than playing it at an arcade when all is said and done.
It’s pretty, it sounds good and it’s exactly what it claims to be and not much more; consider Akai Katana instead.

As we make that smooth transition from current to next-gen consoles, this fellow old school gamer finds it refreshing to come across titles that serve as gorgeous reminders of those action-packed moments from yesteryear, and “Under Defeat HD: Deluxe Edition” from G. Revolution and Rising Star Games is such the title. UDHD is an arcade shooter (which was first released for the Sega Dreamcast in 2006) that has players taking over the role as a helicopter pilot that is caught in a conflict between the Empire and the Union. What makes UDHD’s story more interesting is that it’s based on World War II.
The game is being released on the Playstation 3 and XBOX360 in Europe but it's exclusive on the Playstation 3 in North America. Odd to say the least.
