Wild Guns: Reloaded

Wild Guns: Reloaded for SWITCH, PC and PS4 is an extensive remake of 1994’s Wild Guns for Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It was developed by Natsume, a Japanese studio known for various titles, including Omega Five, Godzilla, and Harvest Moon: Seeds of Memories. Natsume Atari as well as the developers of the original were also involved in the development.

Plot

In the game, we follow two protagonists: Annie, who wishes to take revenge on the Kid’s gang, and a bounty hunter, Clint, that helps her. Wild Guns: Reloaded combines several seemingly incompatible genres. On the one hand, it is a typical western, but on the other, it features science fiction and steampunk elements.

Mechanics

The gameplay in Wild Guns: Reloaded for SWITCH, PC and PS4 combines the ordinary rail crosshair with elements of third-person shooters. It means that we control the characters by running, rolling, jumping etc. and simultaneously trying to aim at enemies in the back of the level. The formula of the classic Wild Guns was slightly enhanced — instead of two heroes, we have four, and all of them have their unique weapons. Moreover, we can play in a co-op mode for up to four players. All of the above is complemented by new arenas (the ones from the original are also available) as well as previously unknown bosses and special weaponry.
