TxK for the PlayStation Vita is a remake of the retro shooter, Tempest 2000 and is available to download now from the PlayStation Store, priced €6.99. PlayStation Plus brings the price down to €5.59.

The game is developed by long-time llama enthusiast Jeff Minter, and features 100 levels, 3 different game modes, and a mind-spangling mix of visuals and audio to accompany the in-the-zone electric death eating action. Glowing vectors, explosive particle effects and a pulse-pounding soundtrack are core elements of many modern arcade shooters – a style that Llamasoft defined with its seminal 90s tube shooter.

TxK is the spiritual successor to that genre-defining work and brings you 100 levels of engrossing score-chasing gameplay with an outstanding soundtrack that will have your head nodding as you blast your way onto the scoreboards. Three gameplay modes and our acclaimed Restart Best level select mode combine to bring you blissful shooting satisfaction whether you are looking to zone away an hour or two or simply dip in for five minutes to bump up a level’s score.
