14 DAY TRIAL // The development team at Double Helix and publisher Capcom are delivering a launch trailer for Strider, which is now available on the Xbox One from Microsoft, the PlayStation 4 from Sony, the PS3, the Xbox 360 and the PC.
Gamers can enjoy an updated version of the classic side scrolling platformer action, designed specifically to appeal to both long-term fans of the genre and modern players.
Strider tells the story of Strider Hiryu, a capable fighter who needs to explore the metropolis of Kazakh City in order to battle and finally defeat the main villain, called Grandmaster Meio.
The core mechanics of the modern version of the game are balanced to mix exploration, speed and combat and Capcom says that it has ideas for more similar revivals as long as the current release is a success and finds a solid audience.
