Press release:
Stuttgart, Germany – June 24th 2021.
Strictly Limited Games, ININ Games, and the Japanese retro video game store BEEP, today announced with great delight and excitement that their side-scrolling shmup “Cotton Reboot” is coming digitally and physically to the West (AU, EU, and the US) for the PS4 and Nintendo Switch on July 20th, 2021.

The first official trailer encapsulates the magical and perfect fusion of a side-ways scroller, cute ‘em up with a fabulous cast of adversaries, non stop exciting action and an adorable central character. Nata de Cotton, together with her sidekick mascot Silk, a fairy, front up against an ever growing horde of very troublesome enemies in many evil forms.

Cotton Reboot! delivers seven amazing colourful stages, where visual and onscreen conformations really show off this arcade gem at its best. Special effects, pixel perfect animation, sprites and backdrops deliver unexpected surprises.

A remaster with hand-drawn HD graphics

Cotton Reboot! is a wonderful updated, remastered version of the classic and iconic Cotton: Fantastic Night Dreams with brand new features and updated visual designs. The game comes with stunning, hand-drawn HD graphics and remixed soundtracks.

The game comes with the fan favorite iconic Cotton: Fantastic Night Dreams in the X68000 original mode. And it also features 2 more game modes. Arrange mode features 16:9 screens, redesigned graphics and characters. In Score attack mode the player competes for scores online within a limited time (2 minute and 5 minute modes can be selected).

Nintendo Life (Import)

Of all the “cute ’em ups” out there, it remains one of the best……………. 8/10 GREAT

Arrange plays an almost completely new game, doubling the value of the package

Bewitching in both incarnations, Cotton’s Reboot! is a fanfare of zany ghouls and ghosts, inventive and inimitable bosses, and a superbly catchy soundtrack in both original and remixed forms
