An extensive remake of Wild Guns, a classical action game that was initially released in 1994 for SNES. It was developed by Natsume in cooperation with the creators of the original. The game’s plot combines elements of western with science fiction and cyberpunk and tells the story of two protagonists: a girl named Annie, who wishes to take revenge on the Kid’s gang, and a bounty hunter, Clint, helping her.
Wild Guns: Reloaded for SWITCH, PC and PS4 is an extensive remake of 1994’s Wild Guns for Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It was developed by Natsume, a Japanese studio known for various titles, including Omega Five, Godzilla, and Harvest Moon: Seeds of Memories. Natsume Atari as well as the developers of the original were also involved in the development.
In the game, we follow two protagonists: Annie, who wishes to take revenge on the Kid’s gang, and a bounty hunter, Clint, that helps her. Wild Guns: Reloaded combines several seemingly incompatible genres. On the one hand, it is a typical western, but on the other, it features science fiction and steampunk elements.
The gameplay in Wild Guns: Reloaded for SWITCH, PC and PS4 combines the ordinary rail crosshair with elements of third-person shooters. It means that we control the characters by running, rolling, jumping etc. and simultaneously trying to aim at enemies in the back of the level. The formula of the classic Wild Guns was slightly enhanced — instead of two heroes, we have four, and all of them have their unique weapons. Moreover, we can play in a co-op mode for up to four players. All of the above is complemented by new arenas (the ones from the original are also available) as well as previously unknown bosses and special weaponry.

Game Ratings for Wild Guns: Reloaded Video Game.
Nintendo Insider: 8 / 10 by Ryan Janes
Wild Guns Reloaded is among one of the best examples of bringing an older title over to a newer system. While it would have been one thing to do a simple port job of this SNES cult-classic, the wealth of fresh new content adds another layer to this already excellent shooting gallery experience. Steeper price aside, this is a perfect fit for Switch offering an action-packed, fun time on your own or with friends.
