BATSUGUN EXA LABEL
LIMITED EDITION Software Kit

Created by the founding members of CAVE, BATSUGUN EXA LABEL is the definitive version of the genre pioneer of bullet hell shooters. Developed by exA-Arcadia in cooperation with original TOAPLAN staff members, Junya Inoue aka Joker Jun returns as the Illustrator and Scenario Director. Keishi Yonao directed the new arranged soundtrack and newly added character voices.

Choose from 6 different Skull Hornet squadron pilots in their mission to retake the kingdom from a mad dictator. Depending upon which character you select, experience the narrative from different perspectives or team up with a 2nd player to discover more lore. Every character interaction and story sequence is now fully voiced by renowned 90’s anime voice actors giving every action on screen even more of an impact.

As standard with EXA LABEL releases,  this title features perfect renditions of the Original and Special arcade modes with numerous bug fixes uncovered during development and by super players alike. A newly created Special’ (Dash) mode condenses the lengthy original SP mode into a challenging 1 loop affair. The long awaited EXA LABEL mode completely changes the gameplay to focus on scoring and bomb usage. Uncover all of the secrets to get the high score. EXA LABEL EXTREME mode is also available to veterans who love the challenge our releases bring to the table.
