Irem Collection Vol.3 - PS5 [Amazon.co.jp Exclusive Bonus] Original instruction card style keychain included & [Bonus] Instruction Manual included

The third installment in the "Irem Collection" series, bringing Irem's arcade and console classics to the latest consoles! This highly anticipated lineup includes seven versions of three titles: "Mr. Heli's Great Adventure" (Japan/US arcade and PCE versions), "Magic Guard Gunhawk" (Japan/US arcade versions), and "Dragon Breed" (Japan/US arcade versions). All titles are being ported to consoles for the first time, making this a highly anticipated lineup!

"Mr. Heli's Great Adventure" is a side-scrolling shooter originally released for arcades in 1987. To save a planet on the brink of collapse, players pilot "Mr. Heli," an adorable orange helicopter with tiny legs. Defeat enemies and avoid obstacles as you navigate various stages, including green floating islands, moving bedrock zones, and underground clock towers. Collect crystals along the way to purchase power-ups, and your goal is to fully strengthen your character and defeat the final boss, MUDDY, lurking deep underground. The game features vibrant, pop graphics and comical characters, which are rare for Irem titles of this period, but the difficulty is also quite challenging. "Irem Collection Vol. 3" also includes the PC Engine version released in 1989.

"Dragon Breed" is a side-scrolling shoot'em up released for arcades in 1989. Players take on the role of the protagonist, the young king Caius, and their goal is to defeat the Demon King in the final stage with the help of the giant dragon Bahamut. The protagonist can ride the dragon's back and attack with weapons, ram into the dragon, or wrap his long body around the protagonist to protect him from enemy attacks. Bahamut's ability to attack and defend depending on the situation is the true essence of Irem's shooters, and the presence of Bahamut, who players will soon feel a bond with, is the game's greatest feature.

"Magic Guard Gunhawk" is a side-scrolling shoot'em up released for arcades in 1992. The game is themed around a wizard riding a broom. Its colorful, pop, and cute graphics and upbeat music create a unique worldview that's rare for an Irem shooter. However, the game's deep, highly strategic gameplay, featuring features like "charge shots" to fire powerful spells and "broom shots," in which the broom flies in the opposite direction of a directional input, is characteristic of Irem. It also supports two-player simultaneous play, which was becoming mainstream at the time, and mid-game joining is supported.

The Irem Collection offers a variety of features to help you enjoy these masterpieces to the fullest, including online rankings, instant rewind functionality, and save and load status.

The common appeal of Irem's classic titles is the graphics and music that express their unique worldviews at a high level. The limited edition includes a soundtrack featuring the game's music and a special art book featuring artisan-quality pixel art graphics as luxurious bonuses. Be sure to purchase the limited edition, which will allow you to fully immerse yourself in the gameplay, graphics, and music of this Irem masterpiece.
