SHANTAE AND THE SEVEN SIRENS Gets a May Release Date for Console and PC

Many fans are very excited for the wider release of Shantae and the Seven Sirens from WayForward. The game released on Apple Arcade already, but for those of us who haven’t bought into that platform, we now have a release date. The game features the half-genie Shantae on a brand new adventure.

Packed with multiple towns and more labyrinths than ever before, Shantae and the Seven Sirens combines the most popular elements from past Shantae titles into the Half-Genie hero’s biggest outing to date. The excitement begins when Shantae visits a tropical paradise where she befriends new Half-Genie allies, but things quickly go awry as she discovers that sinister secrets are stirring beneath the island’s surface! As Shantae gets wrapped up in the island’s mysteries, she’ll use all-new dance abilities and instant-transformation Fusion Magic to explore the nonlinear, interconnected world and battle an assortment of diabolical foes…not the least of which are the enigmatic Seven Sirens!

Apple Arcade players will notice a new update for the game available now that includes the game’s conclusion. Meanwhile, the rest of us will have to wait until May 28 when Shantae and the Seven Sirens launches on Nintendo Switch, PC, PS4, and Xbox One. Of course, the release date is tentative with the current health concerns around the world.
