DESCRIPTION

The acclaimed Yūzō Koshiro is back with the incredible score to Earthion! Listen to the sounds of this modern classic shmup with our limited release on double LP and cassette tape, both coming as transparent, blue-coloured variants. Featuring 31 tracks from the video game, mastered especially for the format, along with packaging featuring artwork by illustrator Mitsuhiro Arita. The vinyl edition contains liner notes by Yūzō Koshiro (in English and Japanese).

Created by Japanese developer Ancient Corporation, studio of the legendary video game composer Yūzō Koshiro (Streets of Rage, ActRaiser), Earthion is a space-themed 2D side-scrolling shooter that sees players guide space fighter pilot Azusa Takahashi through eight chaotic levels, each with their own unique environments, enemies, and screen-filling boss fights.

Earthion has been developed to run natively on SEGA Genesis & Mega Drive, pushing the original 16-bit hardware to its absolute limit, and includes an original soundtrack from Yūzō Koshiro. Returning to his Koshiro’s 16-bit roots, the soundtrack features 30 original tracks, alongside an incredible soundscape of effects to transport players back to a golden age of retro gaming. Highly customizable scanline configurations allow players to get an authentic retro experience on modern displays.

Earthion was created by an all-star team, including Makoto Wada (Gotta Protectors, Royal Anapoko Academy) and Yūzō Koshiro (Streets of Rage, ActRaiser). Japanese artist Mitsuhiro Arita, best known for his work illustrating Marvel® Comics and the Pokémon™ Trading Card Game, also lent his hand to two stunning key art pieces for Earthion.

Limited Run Games has announced that the brand new 16-bit shoot ‘em up Earthion will be launching on PC, PlayStation®4, PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo® Switch™ in 2025, and will also be available on a physical cartridge for the Genesis & Mega Drive.
