HAMSTER has announced that this week’s Console Archives game will be Bokosuka Wars, releasing on June 25th for Switch 2 and PS5.
Bokosuka Wars was released by ASCII in 1985 for an 8-bit home console. This RPG game puts you in the role of King Suren, fighting alongside your soldiers to restore peace to the Kingdom of Suren, which has been conquered by the tyrant Ogoreth of the Basamu Empire. Help your soldiers, who have been transformed into trees and rocks by King Ogoreth’s magic, as you make your way to Basamu castle to defeat your arch-enemy, King Ogoreth.
The “Console Archives” (CSA) series is designed to bring classic games originally released on home consoles to modern gaming platforms. In “Console Archives” series, features such as customizable button layouts, rapid-fire settings, multiple save points, and for some titles, a rewind function have been added, to support players in completing these classics. Additional options include screen layout adjustments and filters that recreate the the nostalgic atmosphere of CRT TVs back in the day, allowing players to customize the visual experience to their preference.
Whether it’s a title you played long ago or one you’re experiencing for the first time, we hope you’ll find a favorite and enjoy the game your way.
