About Pocky & Rocky Reshrined
Pocky & Rocky recounts the exploits of Pocky, a young Shinto shrine girl, and Rocky, a raccoon, as they strive to rescue a collection of animals known as the Nopino Goblins. The game is played from the top down and includes both single-player and cooperative modes.
Rocky and Pocky Reshrined is a follow-up to Pocky & Rocky, also known in Japan as the Kiki Kaikai action-shooting game series, which debuted in 1986 as an arcade game from Taito Corporation and is being developed under license from the company.
Pocky & Rocky Reshrined will also be available on Nintendo Switch in the west this year, but no specific date has been set.
