Japanese game publisher Bliss Brain announced that it has partnered with Korean publisher Cometsoft to officially release the physical package version of the 2D action game “70s-style Robot Anime GetP-X” for <a href="https://comicvibe.com/blazblue-entropy-effect-x-coming-to-nintendo-switch-2-major-update-announced/" title="BlazBlue Entropy Effect X coming to Nintendo Switch 2, major update announced”>Nintendo Switch™ and PlayStation®5 in Korean today, July 16
“70s Robot Anime Get-P-X” is a full remaster of the title of the same name, which was originally released exclusively for the PlayStation in Japan in 1999. The original game gained fame as a ‘legendary cult classic’ due to its overwhelming amount of animation and its clear love for robot anime
For this remaster, the original Betacam master tapes were digitized and restored for clarity using the latest upscaling technology. Over 8k frames of original animation, which were originally recorded at 320×240 resolution and 15 FPS, have been perfectly restored and presented at 24 frames per second to preserve the analog feel of the original
The main game plays as a classic side-scrolling shooter. The protagonist’s unit, Get-P-X, can transform into three forms: the balanced X1, the high-speed X2, and the high-power X3, each with unique weapons and attacks. In the middle of the story, Get-P-X evolves into the more powerful Get-P-XX, which significantly changes its design, attack patterns, and even gameplay. While maintaining the difficulty level of the original, the game adds modern quality-of-life features such as rewind, rapid-fire, and quick-save functions. Notably, it also includes a CRT filter that recreates the texture of old cathode-ray tube monitors.
The remastered version retains the original 1999 voice acting, featuring a star-studded cast including Akira Kamiya, Sho Hayami, and Shuichi Ikeda. The theme songs and insert tracks were performed by renowned artists such as Isao Sasaki, Akira Kushida, and Hironobu Kageyama
The Korean physical package version of “70s Robot Anime Get-P-X” for Nintendo Switch™ and PlayStation®5 was released on the 16th in both standard and limited editions. The limited edition includes a reproduction drama CD featuring restored audio from the original PlayStation release, an art book of production materials, and comes in a special box featuring exclusive illustrations
