Super Time Force releases May 14 announced Capybara Games in a new trailer for its upcoming arcade shooter.

The game will be available digitally for both the Xbox One and Xbox 360. No price details were provided in the announcement.

Death is an expected result of the difficulty but a unique twist allows players to further progress in the game. Upon dying, players are able to rewind time and fight along their past self. By stacking deceased versions of themselves, players will rain down gunfire on enemies and constantly progress through levels. The unique gameplay element is supplemented by a large cast of playable characters, each with their own abilities to take advantage of.

Capybara Games originally planned for Super Time Force to release in late 2013 or early 2014 on the Xbox 360. However, the developer delayed the launch to accommodate a simultaneous release across both Xbox consoles. Last year, Capybara said that after a period of Xbox exclusivity, it has the ability to bring Super Time Force to other platforms.

Quick Take

Super Time Force is an excellent addition to Microsoft’s indie lineup. The game invokes the style and madness of Broforce. The reverse time mechanic is fun to use but isn’t overpowered. Capybara turned heads last year with its upcoming roguelike Below and hopefully more of that will be shown at E3.
