[Review] Cytus Alpha
Posted on 5 years ago by Dennis Gagliardotto(@LyonHart_) in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: April 25, 2019
Developer: Rayark
Publisher: Flyhigh Works
Music has always been essential in games since the beginning of time, spanning from chiptune to various forms of electronic based music with MIDIs, synths, and beyond, to the more contemporary live orchestrations. It’s no shock then that rhythm games – where the core focus is music itself – would gain popularity and only continue to grow thanks to the likes of Dance Dance Revolution and Guitar Hero. Recent hits help remind us about what makes the rhythm genre so great, not only giving us tons of great songs to play through, but introducing clever and inventive ways to play. That trend continues on Switch with Cytus Alpha – a re-imagining of one of mobile’s most enjoyable and highest grossing games.

Though there hasn’t been an official announcement as of yet, it’s looking like Mantis Burn Racing could be receiving a physical release in the west. The game received a new rating from the ESRB not too long ago, with PM Studios listed as publisher. PM Studios has brought out physical versions of Switch eShop titles, including Voez and Mercenaries Saga Chronicles.
Mantis Burn Racing does actually have a physical copy, but only in Asia. Flyhigh Works handled the release in that territory.
Thanks to Jake for the tip.
