NIS America has recently made the announcement that the highly anticipated R-Type Tactics I & II Cosmos will have its release on June 18 in the West. This release includes compatibility for several platforms such as Switch 2, the traditional Switch, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series and PC on Steam. This strategy collection made its initial debut in Japan earlier in the month, specifically for consoles.
The Western version of the release will have physical copies available for PS5, PS4, and Switch. Meanwhile, other platforms will offer the game in digital format. A noteworthy point to remember is the decision by NIS America to cancel Limited Edition and Deluxe Editions for the Xbox Series X|S.
The ultimate turn-based sci-fi strategy collection, R-Type Tactics I & II Cosmos, will provide an extensive platform for players to test their combat strategy skills. This two-game combination of the classic R-Type Tactics titles is updated to be compatible with modern consoles. The collection has numerous unique units across various levels. The two gaming options allow players to fight against or even play as the Bydo Empire.
The story continues with Bydo continuing to threaten humanity. Your mission will be to outsmart and outmaneuver them, in hopes of securing a victory for the Space Corps. However, there is also the opportunity to align with the forces you were originally meant to destroy.
The experience of R-Type Tactics I • II Cosmos is amplified with the new tactical, turn-based strategy gameplay. With hundreds of ships and levels to choose from between both games, there are several campaigns you can embark on as the Space Corps and the Bydo.
For the first time, this two-game collection presents the debut of R-Type Tactics II in the West. The games allow for multiple campaigns for each faction with unique gameplay experiences. Furthermore, a brand-new set of missions following the conclusion of Tactics II expands the content available to players.
The Limited Edition bundle of R-Type Tactics I • II Cosmos for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5 can be pre-ordered for $79.99 from the NIS America Online Store. The limited-edition bundle includes R-Type Tactics I & II Cosmos Deluxe Edition, a 2-disc Soundtrack, Conceptual Art Card Set, Rwf-9A ARROW HEAD Acrylic Stand, Bwf-1Dα BYDO SYSTEM α Acrylic Stand, and a Collector’s Box. The Limited Edition and Deluxe Editions for Xbox Series X|S have been canceled.
