Get ready for a heavy dose of nostalgia with a side of explosive space combat.
Perp Games and Truant Pixels have just announced Rogue Flight, an arcade space shooter that looks like it was ripped straight from the golden age of anime. Think sleek fighters, vibrant explosions, and enough speed lines to make your head spin. This love letter to classic 80s and 90s anime is hitting PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch later this year, with a physical edition also dropping for PS5.
A Cosmic Cocktail of Action and Style
Set three years after a global catastrophe caused by the rogue AI ARGUS, Rogue Flight puts you in the cockpit of an advanced fighter. Your mission? Take down ARGUS and its robotic hordes, liberating the solar system one epic dogfight at a time.
But Rogue Flight is more than just a pretty face. Here’s what you can expect:

- High-Octane Gameplay: Engage in fast-paced aerial combat across nine diverse stages, pulling off gravity-defying maneuvers and unleashing a devastating arsenal of weapons.
- Branching Narrative: Your choices matter. Experience a story with multiple paths and endings, adding replayability and depth to the action.
- Customization Galore: Trick out your fighter with over 100 liveries, 24 badges, 40 aero designs, and 40 weapons, each with upgradable attributes.
- Killer Soundtrack: Immerse yourself in the action with an original soundtrack from video game music veterans Fat Bard, with additional tracks by Rinn and a J-Pop theme song by Itoki Hana.
