Overview

Senjin Aleste is a 2D vertical-scrolling shoot-'em-up developed and released by M2 (Company) for arcades (digitally via the ALL.Net P-ras MULTI Version 3 service for Sega's ALLS UX hardware) in Japan on July 15, 2021. A revival of Compile's Aleste (Franchise) series of shoot-'em-ups, Senjin Aleste is the first to be released in arcades and the first released in a vertically-oriented (or "tate") game screen. It also includes a retro-style pixel art and soundtrack, along with multiple game modes and difficulty options. Similar to the original game, Senjin Aleste makes use of both a weapon power-up system and changeable special weapon system, both making use of item pickups. However, the game now switches between a team of four distinct ships & pilots as players switch special weapons (which also affects their movement and primary weapon). It also adds game mechanics into the series that are found in modern shoot-'em-ups, including a screen-clearing Bomb system, collectible medals, and bullet barrages.
