Strider
You’ve got a date with Strider Hiryu. Capcom has announced that its series reboot, in development at Double Helix (Killer Instinct), will be arriving later this month.
In addition to the February 18 (on consoles) and 19 (via Steam) release dates, Capcom has also revealed two new modes. Beacon Run is a checkpoint race. Survival Mode gives players different loadouts and pits them against waves of enemies.
The two new modes will feature leaderboards. Story mode results will also be posted, so players can compare with friends.
A new batch of screenshots shows off the new game types in action. Strider is coming to PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, Xbox 360, and PC.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
