NCS Preorder Synopsis
«©NCSX» Originally released for the Japanese coin-op market on Taito Type X hardware, King of Fighters Sky Stage was a vertical shooter where the cast of SNK's KOF series took to the heavens and shot bullets at waves of enemies. It was a new venue for normally ground-based strikers such as Kyo Kusanagi and Iori Yagami.
SNK is expanding on the Sky Stage premise with a new PSP title dubbed Neo Geo Heroes: Ultimate Shooting. By changing KOF in the title to Neo Geo Heroes, the game is more inclusive and characters are recruited from other SNK properties so they can also take to the heavens and shoot. The cast of characters in the game is as follows:
KOF Sky Stage Returnees
» Athena Asamiya | Iori Yagami | Kula Diamond
» Kyo Kusanagi | Mai Shiranui | Terry Bogard
New SNK Shmup Inductees
» Akari Ichijou (Last Blade) | A.S.O. SYDIII female pilot
» Iroha (Samurai Spirits) | Marco Rossi (Metal Slug)
A number of game modes may be enjoyed by players as listed below:
» Story Mode | Challenge | Multi Play | Sky Stage | Museum
The "Sky Stage" mode refers to the inclusion of the coin-op version of KOF Sky Stage on the UMD as a bonus. The two games on the UMD may be played in default horizontal (Yoko) or vertical (Tate) viewing aspect by the simple act of setting the screen aspect and rotating the PSP.
Preorders are welcome to ship on July 29, 2010 at JPY4800 or US$52.90 from NCS. Early reservations will ship with a bonus Neo Geo Heroes Soundtrack CD which includes BGM tracks from KOF Sky Stage and Ultimate Shooting which is being given away in 50% ratio.
