In 1990, a little video game debuted on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. The game was called ActRaiser. Developed by Quintet and released by Enix (which would become part of Square Enix), ActRaiser was a combination of action-platformer and city-building. The game would be highly praised, but end up being regarded as a cult classic. Well, it has been announced that an enhanced remake of this game called ActRaiser Renaissance. Let's look at the launch trailer!
Heh heh, there's that iconic "HA!" sound effect.
Yup, that's basically the first ActRaiser game. Funny fact: in the original Japanese game, you played basically as God fighting Satan. This was changed to "the Master" fighting "Tanzra" due to Nintendo of America not allowing religious references in video game localization in the early 90s.
Ooh, that hourglass looked expensive. The owner is going to be angry...
Yeah, nothing will ruin your day like a dinosaur/dragon skeleton monster wrecking your house with its fire breath.
Yeah, that little angel is going to need some backup.
Yeah, those demons are toast.
The game looks and sounds awesome! It's almost like the original SNES version was pumped full of steroids and unleashed on the world.
It's really cool that they brought back Yuzo Kushiro to make the music for this game. He composed the tunes of the original version. The music was one of the best things about the game, so nice to see he's going to do some new tunes for it.
Well, this looks awesome! I did enjoy playing the original ActRaiser on my Wii, so I think I'll give this a shot. It looks like it will be a ton of fun. I think this game got me into city-building games. Anyway, this looks awesome!
