Description
Contra 4 pushes 2D side-scrolling action in an all-new direction with gunplay that spans two full screens, original gameplay mechanics that grant players deadlier abilities than ever before, and frantic multiplayer functionality. Two years after saving earth from invasion by Red Falcon, Bill Rizer and Lance Bean are confronted with a new extraterrestrial menace: the terrifying Black Viper. Joined by hard-boiled mercenaries Mad Dog and Scorpion, the warriors must once again wage war against an entire army of invaders. Refining the 2D side-scrolling genre, Contra 4 delivers pure action at a fever pitch as players jump, shoot, and dodge oncoming hazards. Utilizing a new dual screen presentation, the action spans both screens of the Nintendo DS, giving players the opportunity to battle across expansive environments in which death can come from any direction. The use of both screens for the game8217;s core action also allows for massive boss battles as players try to seek and destroy the weak points of sky-high enemies. A first for the series, Contra 4 introduces a grappling hook accessory that lets players grab onto elements of the environment directly above them. Whether using it to avoid oncoming dangers or attack from a strategic vantage point, the grappling hook allows for new combat situations and dramatic set pieces that underscore the game8217;s adrenaline-soaked pedigree. The game also continues the multiplayer tradition of previous games in the series, by letting two players battle together against Black Viper8217;s army of vile alien forces and reclaim Earth for mankind. To commemorate the 20th anniversary of the popular Contra franchise of video games, Konami Digital Entertainment also has incorporated a wealth of in-game bonus content into its latest entry in the run and gun action franchise.
