About R-Type Dimensions EX

The coin-op classics, R-Type & R-Type II, are together on Steam! Fight through all 14 Bydo-infested stages in retro 2D graphics or shiny 3D graphics - and swap back and forth with the touch of a button 'on-the-fly'. The new 3D graphics are accompanied by fully re-imagined arrangements of the timeless R-Type music tracks! The classic game-play remains untouched while the new Infinite game mode allows continuous progression from game start to final boss... the Bydo will not evade you this time! Both game modes can be played as single player or local multiplayer. Pull yourself together, save the earth and strike down the Evil Bydo Empire!!

Two Complete Games!: All 8 original R-Type levels + all 6 original R-Type II levels. Classic gameplay is unchanged and just as challenging as the original coin-op versions.

Hi-Res 3D Graphics + Fully Revamped Music!: Choose between 2D graphics with classic, retro music or shiny 3D graphics with snazzy, reworked music and sound effects. Switch between graphic and audio modes with the press of a button during play!

New Infinite Mode!: With infinite ships you’re sure to finally conquer the Bydos! Stage select allows you to practice and play the levels you want.

Classic Mode!: Play the classic R-Type & R-Type II just like the original version!

Co-Op Mode!: Go it alone or blast the Bydos with a buddy. Play friendly without collision, or flip it on for competitive play!

New features!
1080p remastered.
Breeze through the bullets with your slow-motion button, or increase your speed with the fast-forward button. In Infinite mode, you can also power-up your ship to its maximum with one button!

✦ AI summary

Players praise this R-Type remaster as an excellent port that successfully modernizes the classic shmups while respecting their original design, with appreciated features like difficulty options, infinite lives mode, and the ability to switch between classic and updated visuals. Long-time fans of the series across multiple platforms consider this among the best versions available, and the inclusion of both games makes it good value, particularly on sale.

I always liked R-Type I, II. They did a good job with remastering this I can't see any faults here, if you're a fan of shooters like this it's worth it.

so many classic things I've seen so many times before! (except for the boss in stage 2 from the first game, which I've never seen anything like in my life.) the ability to switch 2D / 3D on the fly was brilliant. these are great games well worth playing. now if only I could figure out what the heck that second boss is all about. looks so alien and mysterious. spooky.

It's a good port and has slow mode within infinite mode for people who are new to the series for this tough game.

I've played many ports of these games, and owned the ZX Spectrum Sinclair 128K, Sega Master System, Super Nintendo, and The Wii rendition of the TurboGrafx, ( I missed the RTYPES on the PS1).. this is probably my favourite one. They've done a great job at updating the visuals and music whilst staying true to the originals art and composition. I love that you can switch between the classics and the modern and change up the camera angles. I got this in a bundle on sale with RTYPE III which I guess was reasonable for a brand new game and it's two predecessors, I suspect I'm going to be rather busy attempting to get back in some decent form on these games, but that's the major draw of this franchise. These versions allow you to play with infinite lives and to choose which level you want to begin on, which allows you to focus your practice and build muscle memory efficiently. A great little addition. To be straight up, this is one of the best side scrolling shoot em up's of it's era and also ever made, enjoy !
