Darius Cozmic Collection Arcade Build 7680524 (upd.20.11.2021)

Darius Cozmic Collection Arcade — the idea of bringing back such legendary classics to modern screens is laudable in itself. Each game in the series is optimized for modern TV. As expected, the collections have a launcher with a user-friendly interface and additional materials. Added quick save and load functionality and pause mode. Improved stereo this is especially noticeable in arcade versions of games, where the sound is designed for the stereo speakers of the machine. Gamepad controls are clear and pliable.

Visually, games look great for their age and are capable of captivating for more than one hour. It is worth noting that the games have retained their original resolution, do not stretch to full screen and have a stylistic frame for the design of slot machines or consoles from which they are ported. The reprint is being developed by the original publisher Taito. First of all, the Cozmic Collection is aimed at old-school gamers who feel like returning to a wonderful shmap without bothering to find the right arcade machine, or old Japanese consoles with cartridges. The main advantage of the reissue is the release on the Switch portable consoles. Taking the Darius series with you on the road and shooting off hordes of enemies and bosses is a delightful experience.
