 PSP Strike Witches: Hakugin No Tsubasa - Import Preorder

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» In an alternate reality, the Earth and particularly Europe has been ravaged by the effects of an invasive force known as the Neuroi. To counter their assaults, humanity develops the "Striker Unit" which is an all-in-one device which grants wearers the power of flight, defensive measures, and enhances one's propensity for magic. In the world of Strike Witches, cat-eared girls serve as the warriors who don the Striker Units and thrust through the heavens to battle the insidious Neuroi.

    Originally a manga/anime, Strike Witches expands its reach with a horizontal shooter which was released on the Xbox 360 in 2010 and arrives on the PSP this summer. The game features a cast of 11 cat-eared girls who are grouped into cadres of three whom take to the skies and shoot down waves upon waves of Neuroi attackers. The girls are:
 
» Yoshika Miyafuji
» Mio Sakamoto
» Lynette Bishop
» Minna-Dietlinde Wilcke
» Erica Hartmann
» Gertrud Barkhorn
» Perrine-H. Clostermann
» Francesca Lucchini
» Charlotte E. Yeager
» Sanya V. Litvyak
» Eila Ilmatar Juutilainen

    Strike Witches uses a control scheme that's reminiscent of
Robotron
where the analog stick on the PSP is used for movement and the face buttons are pushed to shoot. This control mechanism allows for flighty movements and rapid-fire 360˚ directional shots as Neuroi enter the screen from all quarters. Furthermore, the trio of girls that the player selects may be arranged in various flight formations to counter threats and overcome obstacles during the course of the game.
 
   Modes include a Story Mode which includes cinematic/interactive sequences, a Practice Mode for honing one's skills, and an Online Mode where players can post their top scores and check where they stand on a national leaderboard of elite Strike Witch handlers. The PSP conversion of the game includes a new scenario and the DLC content (Time Attack Mode, additional scenarios) that was released for the Xbox 360 edition of Strike Witches.

   The first production of the game includes bonus DLC for a custom Strike Witches theme. The limited edition of the game includes an exclusive Lynette Bishop Nendoroid swimsuit figure who's wearing a pink one-piece bikini. Reservations for the regular and limited edition are welcome to ship on June 28, 2012.
