Taito, well-known for its arcade roots lives up to their name with their remastered and updated version of the classic Elevator Action. It's not just an HD port though, there are more bells and whistles, and of course, elevators. And speaking of the classic, it's included as well. Check out the full review for more details.
The PlayStation 4′s Arcade Archives is getting a bunch of new titles from Taito like Darius, The Legend of Kage, Bubble Bobble, and several others.
Dokuro was released as a PlayStation Plus game in North America today. What new games did Japan get this month?
From the review: "It doesn't take an international man of mystery to deduce why Elevator Action was so popular nearly three decades ago. The original arcade machine mixed the excitement of a James Bond movie with the side-scrolling level designs of Mappy. But this wasn't some run-and-gun action game; it required players to sneak their way through interior mazes, using doors and elevators to avoid bad guys and collect hidden documents.
While it may not be the biggest name these days, Elevator Action has had a solid run over the last thirty years. Not only did Taito develop a 16-bit sequel in 1994, but they also managed to release versions on the Game Boy Advance, Saturn, PlayStation 2, Wii and countless other systems. Taito even managed to get a reboot into the arcades in 2010. Their newest version, Elevator Action Deluxe, may not be everybody's cup of tea, but it proves that this series deserves to be talked about all these years later."
