Missile Dancer now available on Switch

Hop in your fighter jet and take out the enemies in Missile Dancer, the 2D shmup now available on Switch. Give the launch trailer above a watch, and then read all about the game below.

Global video game publisher DICO has announced the 2D action shoot 'em up Missile Dancer is now available digitally from the Nintendo eShop on Thursday, Jan. 21st in Americas, Europe, the United Kingdom, and other supported western territories, priced at 9.99€ / £8.99 / $9.99.

In addition to the game release, we want to tease a new extra coming to the Missile Dancer. This addition will come in the coming months. Stay tuned!

Created by TERARINGAMES, the Japanese developer behind the sci-fi action game Gemini Arms, Missile Dancer features frenetic 2D action where players pilot fighter jets to infiltrate the enemy base and stop them before the end.

On a different take on the shmup genre, the bullets of your fighter jet won’t damage the enemy. Instead, they’re your best option against the incoming attacks! To destroy your enemies, you will need to expand your radar and lock on them to shoot them down with a mighty missile strike!

You can increase the range of your lock-on radar and the number of missiles with bonus items after defeating enemies. Don't be hit!

Missile Dancer features two game modes: Arcade and Against the clock and co-op play to play with a friend offline. Also comes complete with a variety of tempting features including:

The most straightforward design for the frenetic action. The same button is used to shoot bullets, expand your radar and, upon release, launch your attack.

Play solo or with a friend in cooperative mode.

Three difficulty levels to test your skills through the game stages.

Two game modes: Arcade and Against the clock. Complete the story like in the old-time arcade machines or try your best score in 3-minute score attack.

Leaderboards to record and brag your best scores.

Choose your way. Horizontal or vertical play on your Nintendo Switch.

You can add scanning lines to your gameplay for that old style arcade CRT screens have.
