What Force you get depends on the ship chosen: they all have different attributes. You can also fire “The Force” off to act independently. Doing so will raise your special attack meter, providing you with a massive attack when it reaches 100%. It absorbs some bullets and can kill smaller popcorn enemies on impact. You collect this item and can lock it to either the front or rear of your ship. R-Type would be a very traditional Shoot ‘Em Up if it wasn’t for “The Force” which really makes the series as a whole. You take a ship of your choice, three lives, and a mysterious power that connects to your ship called The Force (no not that one !) and try to see away the parasitic Bydo empire. R-Type Final 3: Evolved is a horizontal “Shmup” (Shoot ‘Em Up) with a larger emphasis on survival and puzzle solving than that of its bullet hell relatives. So what is R-Type Final 3: Evolved? From my understanding gained by looking through available information and from my time with this game and prior titles in the series, it’s somewhat of a sequel mixed with a fully realized version R-Type Final 2. Much like a Soulsborne title, it’s there if you go searching for it, but let’s face it: Shmups don’t need a story at all. While there isn’t much story, you can find some slight lore dumps within ship descriptions and in a menu you can access from the beginning of the game. R-Type, if you’re not familiar, is a long-running Shmup franchise that sees you controlling a ship and trying to take down the grotesque Bydo empire.Īside from R-Type Tactics 1 and 2 which are due for release later this year, there isn’t a whole lot of obvious story or lore. It seems Granzella and IREM also don’t know the meaning of the word, as shown by the release of the eponymous R-Type Final 3: Evolved. This seems something that Japanese companies seem to laugh in the face of: see the upcoming 16th entry of Final Fantasy. Check any dictionary, and it’ll define ‘Final’ as something along the lines of ‘coming to an end’.
