Earlier this year we shared some details on Dual Core, a promising shooter from small developer Gray Fin Studios. It now has a confirmed release date for North America, 26th May, and will cost $9.99 - it's still waiting for a final date in Europe, which "will likely be a few weeks later".
This colourful twin-stick shooter has robots as the protagonists, wrapping a sci-fi story around co-op focused gameplay. Teaming up with others locally or with the AI seems to be integral to getting through stages, and robots in the team can be gradually upgraded with progress. As a methodical twin-stick shooter with a sense of adventure it certainly looks full of potential.
You can see an extended trailer below - let us know what you think.

This game looks fantastic!
the Wii U has a terrible shortage of co-op twin stick shooters. this one looks right up my alley.
I don't know what to think. It's the first I've heard of it. The video looks alright but I need to know more.
Not bad .....still would prefer Robotron 2084! The best twin stick shooter ever!! Cmon Warner Bros!!
looks like a lot of fun! Not too expensive either... Love the lighting effects
Yea I think everyone in my house can get behind this one
i might actually get this. to bad taxes isn't included for mynintendo pricing for coins
Slow shooting, but color me interested!
I may pick up day one just because why not? I love CO-op and 4 player co-op is a premium!
Twin Stick, Me Likey
Looks nice!
...so, not a system update?..jk..game looks great, bring it on..
DUDE!
This looks like Smash T.V.! From back in the arcade days!
Oh, I'm soooooo getting this!
That is my birthday!
Looks a bit better than Ultratron, but i'll wait till I see how the miiverse peanut gallery takes to it.
There's a joke to be made about "Dual Core coming to Wii U" and the U's "lacking" specs in the mind of the general public. Heck, if you're feeling particularly snarky you could even make a "blast processing joke"...
I don't have a Wii U but as it is coming to Europe later, I must make my obligatory "WOW EUROPE IS GETTING THIS LATE AS WELL AWIOJFOIEJDOIHEROIDHOIRSDHF THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS BLAH BLAHBLAH >:[" post. There it is, have a good day everyone.
Four-player top-down shooter looks cool. I've got a gamepad and two pro controllers; if it supports the cc pro that would let me do the full four-player experience, but I'm sure Remote will do in a pinch.
Looks groovy, though I prefer sprites to whatever you call this quasi-flash cut-out look. Should be another good addition to the party roster.
Looks like a neat little game.
Looks good. Hope it does well.
OMG It's so pretty~ drools
@Captain_Gonru yeah but then we won't get tricked into thinking where getting a deal!
Doesn't look bad.
