Shantae battles the pirate Risky Boots in this 2D side-scrolling action-adventure game. Risky Boots rotates the continent of Sequin Land to drag towns to the coast for plundering. Players take control by shifting and twisting multilayered levels between Front Yard and Back Yard playfields to forge paths, solve puzzles, and explore scrambled landscapes.
Hair-whip foes, wield magic items, and transform into six creatures like monkey, elephant, or crab to navigate monster crypts, labyrinths, and misplaced towns. Buy upgrades, hunt collectibles, and team up with allies such as Rottytops, Sky, and Bolo amid fierce boss fights. Four-player versus Battle Mode adds competitive chaos for fans of fluid action-adventure platforming.
Shantae is back in a 2D side-scrolling action-adventure game 20 years in the making! The nefarious pirate Risky Boots has a “groundbreaking” new plan that will leave Sequin Land spinning — by rotating the continent, she can move any town right to the coast for easy plundering! As Shantae, turn the tectonic tables on Risky by taking control of the land itself: shift, twist, navigate, and explore by swapping between mix-and-match multilayered levels! Hair-whip and belly-dance your way through scrambled lands, misplaced towns, monster-filled crypts, and daunting labyrinths. Six creature transformations, fierce boss battles, and a 4-player versus mode await!
