Bullet-Hell SHMUP with TATE Mode ‘Ghost Blade HD’ comes to the Wii U and more

Oh, hey! The Wii U gets mentioned in an article and it isn’t in a negative light. How nice for a change, even if the Wii U version of the game we’re talking about still gets the shaft.

Hucast Games is proud to announce that Ghost Blade HD is coming to PS4, Xbox One and Wii U in February 2017. The game is a bullet-hell shooter with TATE mode.

I had no idea what the heck TATE mode is and after I looked it up I’m still not quite sure. It has something to do with the screen and it orientation, or whatever.

Ghost Blade HD is an intense bullet-hell shoot ’em up game, with satisfying and addictive score-based gameplay, with its inspiration going back to the shooting games of the 1990s era, Ghost Blade HD ties old memories to current tones and techniques. Designed with a modern graphic style and special effects, Ghost Blade HD also features an awesome 2-player and TATE mode! Ghost Blade HD is easy to learn, hard to master.
