After a few months of announcing the physical release of Bitmap Bureau Collection in Europe, fans in North America can celebrate as Numskull Games confirmed that the collection of games developed by Bitmap Bureau will have two physical editions on Nintendo Switch and PS5 and will be released on July 23, 2024.
In addition to the standard edition that will be available at major retailers, a Deluxe edition will be produced, which includes 5 postcards, an art book, and a soundtrack CD and will be available exclusively on Video Games Plus in North America.
Bitmap Bureau Collection includes three games from the UK developer: Final Vendetta, Battle Axe, and Xeno Crisis. All of them have had their physical editions released in the past on the Nintendo Switch, making it possible to obtain them individually.
About-
Bitmap Bureau Collection is a compilation bringing together three great retro classics from Bitmap Bureau. The incredible collection of arcade-action games includes the boiling beat ‘em up Final Vendetta, the "pixel art” Battle Axe, and the famous arena shooter Xeno Crisis!
- Final Vendetta is a brutal beat 'em up action game playable solo or with 2 players in the vein of arcade classics. It features beautiful pixel art graphics and a thumping soundtrack including exclusive tracks from the Utah Saints! Face off against tough guys while crossing environments that are each more dangerous than the next.
- Battle Axe is a top-down arcade hack 'n' slash that boasts quality graphics created by pixel art expert Henk Nieborg, gameplay mechanics faithful to the genre, and a soundtrack created by the famous composer Manami Matsumae.
- Xeno Crisis is an arena shooter in which one or two players take control of seasoned marines embarked on a deadly mission to confront an alien threat and return home alive! Eliminate thousands of opponents until you reach a ruined research outpost to find survivors and finally fight whatever led to the destruction of this outpost.
