Previously gaming company Atlus has released a tactical role-playing game for Nintendo’s handheld console, the DS. Called as Drone Tactics, it was announced in December 2007. Now Atlus USA sends word about Tokyo Beat Down, a good old beat ’em up game for the Nintendo DS.
Tokyo Beat Down is about Beast Cops who are on a mission to stop the crime, violence and the terrorism on the Tokyo streets. The game also adds guns and offers a variety of weapons, right from a diminutive handgun to rocket launchers. It has a style reminiscent of the cop shows of the seventies. And yes, the beat ‘em up game not only features multiple characters but also multiple endings as there are three different police officers.
Tokyo Beat Down for the Nintendo DS will be released by Atlus USA on March 10, 2009. It will come with a price tag of $29.99 (approx. Rs. 1, 425). It seems that the game sure packs in a lot of action and besides GTA: Chinatown Wars, this is one game that DS gamers can look forward to this year.
