Looks like Under Defeat HD will be coming to the arcades as Under Defeat HD+. Looks like New Order mode is there. maybe differences from the retail release?. Coming out in the Spring.

Blog post from Muruyama sounds like there will be as yet unspecified change in HD+.

It also sounds like those changes will be coming to PS3 and Xbox 360 sometime after the arcade release via a patch. Some bug in the 360 version will also be patched (I think?).



p.s. Firefox is being a bastard today :(

Looking at that white chopper, it seems you might be able to change colors.

So now that they are re-porting this back to arcades will the PS3 version be the new standard for scores?

This is nearly finished, according to Murayama

Also says something about a new Senko game they'd previously announced (wasn't it for the Vita?) being temporarily suspended for the time being.

I got some info on this from a friend who checked out the location test.

Apparently there are a couple of significant changes to the gameplay:

First, you can use the red helicopter (or something similar to it) from the US/EU release, seen here.

You can also use the helicopter available as DLC for the JP release, for a total of 3 ships.

There is a "Warning Gauge" which appears at the top of the screen, and apparently increases the more your craft rotates around the screen? This part was a little unclear.

Anyways, when it maxes out, more enemies appear on screen with harder attacks, which you can then destroy for scoring bonuses. Sounds almost like a DDP Resurrection Black Label style of rank gauge.

Isn't this update going to be available as a patch or DLC of some kind to the PS3/360 versions eventually? I thought I heard rumblings about that at some point...

Yeah, he said sometime after the arcade release, everything G.rev have ever done has ended up on consoles at some point anyway.

Guess we'll find out what the warning gauge is for, right now it sounds like some weird mechanic that wants to punish you for macro-dodging, though it'll be tied into scoring for sure since you want heavy enemy formations as targets for the rocket option.

Under Defeat "The Ride"

Ok, so maybe this isn't an official g-rev release, and maybe the cabinet doesn't actually move, and maybe its playing the original Naomi version of UD. But you gotta give props to Tong Li Animation (LCD cabinet maker in China) for being shmup fans.
