Cult Classic ‘Mamorukun Curse’ Returns to Consoles, PC
Bullet hell shooter gets worldwide re-release with enhanced features.
Get ready for a second chance to dive into bullet hell! The quirky shooter *Mamorukun Curse*, initially a Japan-only Xbox 360 title, is being re-released globally as *Mamorukun ReCurse* for PC, PlayStation, and Xbox.
Xbox’s Limited Japanese Success
While **Microsoft’s** Xbox has struggled to gain traction in Japan, the Xbox 360 saw early success, even outselling the PlayStation 3 for a time. This led to some exclusive Japanese games, including *Mamorukun Curse*, which launched in 2009, though it remained exclusive to Japan, with a limited US PlayStation 3 release in 2013.
Worldwide Release Announced
Now, players worldwide will get to experience this unique title. *Mamorukun ReCurse* will be available on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox beginning September 25. The news was first reported by TrueAchievements.
According to Statista, as of 2023, PlayStation holds a 78.4% share of the console gaming market in Japan, while Xbox holds less than 2%.
What to Expect
Reminiscent of classic games like *Pocky & Rocky* on the Super Nintendo, *Mamorukun ReCurse* offers cute visuals with intense bullet hell gameplay. Check out the trailer below to get a taste of the action:
