Synopsis: As the defender of Scuttle Town, Shantae has defeated steam-powered pirates, sinister undead and a military takeover in a bid to keep her home town safe, but now, the sassy half-genie must rise to the occasion once again as the Queen of the Seven Seas, Risky Boots, plots to steal a newly discovered limitless source of power.

Shantae: Half-Genie Hero – Ultimate Edition will be available next year as both a physical and digital release on the PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch with further release details to be confirmed in the near future.
