The next Sega Ages release headed to Nintendo Switch will be Techno Soft’s Thunder Force AC. The sci-fi shootin’ title will be available to download in the west from the Nintendo eShop on May 28.
Thunder Force AC is a remake of sorts of 1990 Sega Mega Drive sequel Thunder Force III. The latter proved so popular that Sega “reverse-released” it as an arcade title, an unusual practice for the company at the time. Graphically, Thunder Force AC is identical to its home version but features minor new content as well as the return of some villains from previous Thunder Force titles. It would later be ported to the SNES and Sega Saturn.
