Capcom Entertainment sent over a press release announcing 1942: Joint Strike, a digital reimagining of the classic top-down arcade shooter in development for digital download on Xbox LIVE Arcade and PlayStation Network, and scheduled to be available in summer 2008. 1942: Joint Strike takes inspiration and influence from the ‘80s 194X series of World War II-themed vertical arcade shooters. The art, sound and gameplay of the new game take cues from the original 194X games, but will stand out as its own unique entry. Gameplay will resemble the classic 2D style that gamers expect, but the game utilizes a fully 3D engine - a batch of artwork and screenshots, as well as two trailers, have been added in our download section.
