Treasure, which celebrates its 30th anniversary this year, has announced that it is working on a game that is “highly desired” by gamers. Although Treasure is a name known especially with Radiant Silvergun and Ikaruga, we should not forget Wario World, which they developed in collaboration with Nintendo.
In a tweet marking its 30th birthday, the company said: “This year, our 30th anniversary, we are working hard to get the much-requested ‘it’ game. Hope you continue your support for Treasure”.
Treasure last developed two Gaist Crusher games for the 3DS in 2013 and 2014. The studio, which was very active, especially during the PlayStation 2 period, had been silent for many years.
When it comes to the “highly desired” game, it is necessary to take a look at the studio’s game list. For example, there is the cult game Sin and Punishment from 2000. In 2009, a sequel was made for the Wii, but the series fell completely silent.
And Ikaruga, of course. In fact, in the replies to the tweet, it is seen that this game is wanted to be related to Ikaruga. This shoot;em;up classic is also one of Treasure;s most valuable IP;s.
