Cotton Reboot ported to Nintendo Switch 2 & PlayStation 5 consoles
Horizontal scrolling cute-em-up Cotton Reboot is now available for Nintendo Switch 2 and PlayStation 5 consoles. The enhanced port adds a high-challenge Nightmare Mode.

Cotton Reboot's arranged 'HD Reboot' mode reimagines the classic shoot-em-up with high-definition visual design and arranged music. Also included is a Time Attack mode, and retro X68000 mode recapturing the look and feel of the 1993 original release for personal computers.

In August of 1991, Pony Canyon published the soundtrack from the arcade edition of “Cotton: Fantastic Night Dreams”, featuring eight music tracks by Ken’ichi Hirata and a sound effects collection. Sega’s Wave Master label published a four-disc compilation in December of 2012, bundling music from the arcade game, along with ports and variations for the X68000, Sony PlayStation and Neo-Geo Pocket.

Developed by Rocket-Engine Co.,Ltd., Cotton Reboot previously launched for Windows PCs via Steam. The PS4 and Nintendo Switch editions are published by ININ Games.


From the Nintendo product page:
Welcome to Cotton Reboot!! This wonderful game series was born in the arcades all the way back in 1991, and then made the jump to the classic Japanese home computer Sharp X68000 two years later. That was the first time we got to meet the young witch Cotton and the fairy Silk, who set out to save Fairyland. Since then, these characters have become some of the brightest-shining mascots of the entire cute ’em up genre. Now it’s time to return to this fantastic game, completely renewed and enhanced!
