1942: Joint Strike arrives on XBLA and PSn the week after E3, complete with new levels, enemies and a score composed by Metal Gear Solid veteran Norihiko Hibino.
Capcom’s timless World War 2 shooter 1942 got an HD makeover with Joint Strike, and today we can tell you the game hits PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade servers the week after E3.
More specifically, 1942: Joint Strike will arrive on July 23 for Xbox Live Arcade, and July 24 for PlayStation Network. The game will cost $10, according to a Capcom press release (which, coincidentally enough, is also the confirmed price of WiiWare exclusive Mega Man 9).
In addition to the HD graphical update, Backbone Entertainment created new levels, level backdrops for classic stages, and new enemies for Joint Strike. According to Capcom, the game also features a musical score composed by Metal Gear Solid contributor Norihiko Hibino.
