Details on Radiant Silvergun HD

Bite-sized info includes price
Gillen McAllister 25 May 2011

Japanese game magazine Famistu has detailed some new bits of info regarding the port of Treaure's much-beloved shooter Radiant Silvergun to XBLA.

Translated by Andriasang, the HD version will reportedly retail for 1,200 Microsoft Points and offer both online and offline play.

If that cost translates overseas (and we can't see why not) it puts the shooter as the priciest port in Treasure's back catalogue. Both the recently released Bangai-O HD: Missile Fury and Ikaruga (Radiant's spiritual successor) retail for 800MP.

However, 1,200MP is a lot cheaper than the title has been on sale for before - the Japanese-only release on Sega's Saturn console garnered high prices on eBay and specialist shops over here.

Famistu lists the game as a vague '2011' release, so don't be surprised if Microsoft announce it as part of this year's Summer of Arcade line-up.
