Bandai Namco Entertainment America has released the PS1 classic gun shooting game Time Crisis on PS5 and PS4. The port supports gyro aiming on standard controllers, includes up-rendering, rewind, quick save, and custom video filters, and is available for standalone purchase at 1,100 yen or via PlayStation Plus Premium.
The PS1 version of Time Crisis, originally a home port of the arcade gun shooter, is now available on PS5 and PS4. Bandai Namco Entertainment America began distribution on Tuesday. The port uses the gyro function of the DUALSHOCK 4 and DualSense controllers to approximate the feel of the GunCon light gun that the original home version supported. Players take cover and reload by ducking behind objects, a mechanic that was novel for the genre at the time.
The release includes the special stages that were added to the original home console version. Modern features such as up-rendering, rewind, quick save, and custom video filters are also present. The game can be bought individually for 1,100 yen, or played as part of the PlayStation Plus Premium Classics Catalog.
