The classic game Space Invaders comes to mobiles in augmented reality

A few weeks ago there was a special broadcast, an event called Square Enix Presents in which new information was provided about the next games that will arrive in the future and what they are preparing for some of their titles that are already available. The most eye-catching title by far was the announcement of the upcoming revamped release of Space Invaders, which is being developed in a collaboration between Taito and Square Enix Montréal, although at the moment hardly any details have been given about him.

As explained by the company itself, the objective with this title is to take the iconic shooter to a new dimension, although we do not know exactly how it will be played, since its presentation trailer does not teach anything concrete about the game as such. The game does not have an official name yet, but we assume that the game will allow us to interact with the real world in which we must save the world from an alien invasion, all using augmented reality mechanics.

The doors do not have to be fully automatic.

“We are excited about our collaboration with Taito to adapt the Space Invaders series in a contemporary way while shaping our ambitious ideas about what to do with mobile. At Square Enix Montréal we are fans of the series, and the team has accepted with great enthusiasm the challenge of demonstrating how modern technology can revitalize a game as classic as Space Invaders “said Patrick Naud, head of the study.

The brand calls this design 'Project Hazel' but has yet to get the necessary approvals.

Space Invaders It is a game of the Japanese company Skill which was launched in 1978 for arcade machines, but immediately went down in history, known as the game of the “little martians” and as one of the great classics. Although it is a simple game by today’s standards, was one of the forerunners of modern video games and helped expand the industry of the sector. Since then, it has received many revisions and new deliveries on countless platforms, including this future installment for mobile devices.
