Hamster has announced that Console Archives Dezaemon will launch for PlayStation 5 and Switch 2 on February 19 for $7.99 / 800 yen.

 A pro-grade game construction tool!

Dezaemon was released by ATHENA in 1991 for an 8-bit home console.

It is a game creation tool that allows you to produce your very own original shooting game.

You can design characters and backgrounds using pixel art, compose music with an 8-bit sound engine, and create a wide variety of enemy patterns by adjusting various parameters!

The Console Archives 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.
