Earthion for Nintendo Switch | Clear River

Earthion is a brand-new 2D shoot-'em-up created in the authentic style of the 16-bit era, combining spectacular pixel-art visuals, fast-paced arcade action and an original soundtrack from legendary video game composer Yuzo Koshiro.

With Earth's resources depleted and much of humanity having relocated to Mars, hostile invaders launch an attack on humanity's former home.

Take control of environmental researcher Azusa Takanashi and pilot the advanced YK-IIA space fighter as you lead a desperate counterattack to defend Earth and secure humanity's future.

Battle through eight action-packed stages, destroying enemy ships and collecting their resources to upgrade your fighter's capabilities.

A selection of secondary weapons allows you to experiment with different strategies and tactics as increasingly dangerous enemies stand in your way.

Alongside the main story, Challenge Mode puts your combat skills to the test, while an in-game music player lets you enjoy Yuzo Koshiro's soundtrack outside the action.

Created using genuine 16-bit hardware as its technological foundation, Earthion is both a celebration of classic shoot-'em-ups and an ambitious new entry in the genre.
