Wield the sword and save the future when Oniken: Unstoppable Edition leaps onto consoles next month 01

Destructoid - "If you love 8-bit games and hate yourself, dying repeatedly within Oniken's six merciless levels brings its own form of joy that is rare in games these days"

RockPaperShotgun - "I've had a play, and it's as authentic as it looks. Right down to my dying over and over on the second level, as I did in every single game like this through the 80s."

Indie Haven - "Oniken can be summed up in two words: BAD ASS. Most 8-bit homages don't capture a fraction of the spirit this game possesses."

Thanks to a partnership with Eastasiasoft Limited, Oniken: Unstoppable Edition will also launch digitally in the second quarter of 2019 (exact date is TBA) for PS4 and Nintendo Switch in Japan and other Asian territories. It will also be available in the following physical versions from Play-Asia.com:

  • Oniken: Unstoppable Edition (PS4)
  • Oniken + Odallus Collection (PS4/Switch)
