Strictly Limited Games has opened preorders for Yu Suzuki's 3D shoot-em-up Air Twister, available for PS4, PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch, shipping in early 2024. The physical release includes a 150-page artbook, 86-page Suzuki bio, and soundtrack CD.

A self-reflective homage to Suzuki's Sega arcade classics, the gameplay calls to mind moments from Space Harrier, Afterburner, and Out Run. Previously released through Apple Arcade, players guide Princess Arch as she battles bizarre alien invaders armed with homing arrows.

The 21-track digital soundtrack, featuring rock, opera and classical fusion music by Dutch composer Valensia (Aldous Byron Valensia Clarkson), is streaming on Apple Music, Spotify, and Amazon Music Unlimited.

Air Twister launched on November 10th for Nintendo Switch, PS4 and PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, and Windows through Steam, courtesy of ININ Games.
