The Japanese arcade hit "Ikaruga" receives the full Xbox LIVE Arcade treatment and is ready to launch this Wednesday, April 9, 2008.

"Ikaruga" is a fast-paced scrolling shooter where players must constantly switch their ship's polarity to maximize their damage output and avoid incoming enemy fire of the opposite polarity.

"Ikaruga" on Xbox LIVE Arcade features a two-player co-op mode both locally and over Xbox LIVE. 

"Ikaruga" also features a chaining system that detects when enemies of the same polarity are destroyed consecutively. Doing so will reward players with score bonuses, which will be key to topping "Ikaruga's" leaderboards.

New to the Xbox Live Arcade version is a "replay" feature that allows you to record and replay your progress.

"Ikaruga" will be available worldwide for 800 Microsoft Points.
