Our take on Natsuki Chronicles
The focus on horizontal shooting limits the range of activities outside combat. Story Mode adds narrative structure, while Arcade Mode, equipment collection, and weapon combinations give the game reasons to return to its shooting-focused format.
What is Natsuki Chronicles?
Natsuki Chronicles is a horizontal shoot ’em up set in the same setting as Ginga Force.
The story follows Natsuki from her time as a rookie pilot to the present, with events taking place alongside those of Ginga Force. Story Mode alternates between past and present across more than 10 stages. Arcade Mode provides quick action and online leaderboards.
