Physical editions for Switch, PS5, PS4 launch on June 26
Red Art Games announced on Friday that it will release the physical version of Bushiroad’s Macross: Shooting Insight game for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and PlayStation 4 on June 26.
The physical PS4 edition of the game will only be available in Europe while other consoles’ physical versions will be available in both Europe and North America.
Red Art Games released the game digitally for Switch, PS5, and PS4 in North America and Europe on February 7, a delay from the originally scheduled December 6 release. The company had announced on November 29 the delay to 2025 in order to ensure the game’s quality. The game also got a Deluxe Edition with an artbook and acrylic stand, and a Special Edition with a steelcase, soundtrack, double-sided poster, and five coins.
The game launched for PS5, PS4, and Switch in Japan in March 2024 following a delay to improve its product quality. The version for PC via Steam was delayed to that March.
The game was first slated for release by the end of 2023. In August 2023, the game was delayed to January 2024.
The game was previously announced to launch globally simultaneously.
Bushiroad Games described the game as a “new type of scrolling shoot ’em up.” Bushiroad Games is Bushiroad’s new game label, which also integrates the Bushimo mobile games division. Bushiroad acquired a 50.625% controlling stake in Frontwing Lab, the parent company of Frontwing, in March 2021.
