Studio Bitmap Bureau has announced plans to port its 2019 arena shooter Xeno Crisis to the Game Boy Advance later this year. The Game Boy Advance is still regarded as one of the most beloved handheld platforms of all time and is a widely respected piece of hardware from the 32-bit era of video game consoles. Now, over 20 years after its release, fans of the GBA can look forward to a new title with both retro charm and modern gameplay innovations.
Fans of top-down shooters might have already heard of Xeno Crisis, Bitmap Bureau's critically acclaimed 2D-pixel title. Released in 2019, Xeno Crisis is an indie top-down arena shooter inspired by several of the most beloved 1990s arcade games, such as Mercs and Smash TV. In the game, players take on the role of a veteran marine who is deployed on a mission to Outpost 88, a scientific research facility that has been overrun by aliens. Similar to other arcade-style games, the title also features local multiplayer on most systems, enabling players to act alone or share the screen with a friend.
