Night Slashers (Video Game) | comment |
It's been three months since the city became overrun by monsters, mutants and the walking dead. With armies overwhelmed and supplies running low, it seems the humans are running out of hope... It's only up to three brave hunters to stop this madness once and for all.Night Slashers is a 1993 arcade beat 'em up developed by Data East, and it's notable for two reasons: 1) It's one of the few beat 'em ups that deliberately utilize campy horror tropes, featuring all-favorite monsters such as zombies, werewolves, and psychotic killers. 2) Although beat 'em ups are never far from violence and blood, Night Slashers is surprisingly graphic, not afraid to show intestines spurting out as the enemies fall down. These made Night Slashers a class of its own, and it became one of the most sought Data East games after years.Forever Entertainment, the same people behind Panzer Dragoon Remake and the Panzer Dragoon II Zwei: Remake, are working together with G-Mode to make a remake of this game for all consoles. | |

Night Slashers (Video Game) / int_3517000d | comment |
Mad Scientist: The first stage's miniboss (apparently named Dr. Ripper if the second minigame is evidence), who's introduced slicing apart a zombie before approaching the players and offering to turn them into zombies. You then will have to battle a Frankenstein's Monster type creature (the stage's boss) after dealing with him. | |

Night Slashers (Video Game) / int_3ed8a8b9 | comment |
I'm Melting!: Some enemies' flesh melts away upon defeat with no explanation, most notably the first miniboss, who's human (and, except for all the blood he lost, with an intact corpse in the first part of the cutscene after destroying his creature). | |

Dual Boss | |
Night Slashers (Video Game) / int_486466ee | comment |
Dual Boss: After chasing down the carriage in the second stage, the players have to deal with a hunchback rider and his haunted puppet as minibosses. Played with for the fourth boss fight; there are two spirit bodies, but they share the same vitality meter, and landing the lethal blow on one will immediately destroy the other. | |

Disc-One Final Boss | |
Night Slashers (Video Game) / int_6de71c57 | comment |
Disc-One Final Boss: Done twice. The game at first sets it up like the Vampire Lord is the main villain, until netherworld gates are detected in Mexico and Australia. After the goal of sealing off the portals to the netherworld is completed, it then looks like The Grim Reaper will be the final boss, but he also turns out to be a subordinate, contracted to make monsters swarm the world. Ultimately, it's revealed that King Zarutz is the main villain. | |

Hammered into the Ground: Doing a down air move can do this to most enemies to stun them. The player can kick them while in that state. Be careful, however, because many of them can still fight back while stuck. | |
