Sisters Royale confirmed for the Switch and PS4. The vertical scrolling shoot ‘em up is set to debut at the end of January 2020.

Chorus Worldwide and Alfa Systems have announced the release of Sister Royale. The team is also responsible for Castle of Shikigami. The new game is a spiritual successor to the original classic series.

Five sisters with unique magical powers are in a race to capture the heart of an angel. Players familiar with Castle of Shikigami will undoubtedly recognize the similarities within the new game. For Example, Sisters Royal again uses the power boost mechanic that grants players high rewards for taking high risks.

Additionally, players will have access to the global online leader board support. The game appeals to newcomers as well as seasoned players alike. Varying levels of difficulty and obstructions throughout the game will have players coming back for more as well as competing to be champions.

“We’re super excited to be working with Alfa System to bring Sisters Royale to a global audience,” said Shintaro Kanaoya, Founder of Chorus Worldwide. “The original Castle of Shikigami series is a beloved classic of the genre, and having Alfa System come back to make a modern spiritual successor is thrilling. With its tongue-in-cheek storyline, gameplay, and production values from a team at the height of their 30 years in the industry.

The game employs two distinct systems of play. The Tension Bonus Systems (TBS) is a point multiplier system based on distance from enemies. The Power-shot System boosts attack levels.  Players must master both.

Sisters Royale will take the world by storm on Nintendo Switch and PS4 on January 30th, 2020. Pre-orders will start on December 19th.
