Mamorukun ReCurse! is inspired by traditional Japanese mythology and sees players take on the role of Mamoru, a young warrior who wakes up in the Netherworld after an untimely death. Working alongside a group of new friends, Mamoru must seal the gate to The World of Darkness to prevent the Netherworld being consumed by the dark.
During the vertical-scrolling shoot ‘em up action, players will use Curse Bullets to take out enemies in intense risk-reward gameplay that dynamically alters the difficulty as they play.
Players will be able to enjoy several different modes, including Story Mode, Arcade Mode, and Challenge Courses. There are also a number of alternative costumes, all previously-released DLC characters and a new Gallery Mode.
