R-Type Dimensions for XBLA in February

R-Type Dimensions for February

Tozai's HD revival gets Xbox Live date.

by Martin Robinson, IGN UK

UK, February 2, 2009 - R-Type Dimensions, the HD revival of the
classic 2D shooter series, has been confirmed for a global release and
is expected to land on Xbox Live Arcade later this month.

Developed by Tozai, the game is an HD remix of R-Type I & II, adding
online co-op to the mix as well as the enhanced visuals. Shoot The
Core carried word of the release date, and Microsoft has since told
IGN that the game is on schedule for a European release, and that
precise timings will be unveiled later today.

The game was looking in good shape on the floor of last year's Tokyo
Game Show, where we managed to grab a brief hands-on.

The Arcade mode is weird.
