Before the survivor-like genre captivated us, the term "bullet heaven" was somewhat of a misnomer. It was all about "bullet hell," where dodging countless projectiles was the name of the game. Now, developer Hexadrive is set to bring the retro vibes of the classic bullet hell genre to mobile with their upcoming release, Infinity Bullets.
Scheduled for a summer 2025 release, Infinity Bullets promises a 90s-inspired arcade experience. Gameplay-wise, it delivers exactly what you'd expect from a blend of the original bullet hell and heaven genres. Players will take on the role of a pixelated commando, side-scrolling through space, blasting away hordes of enemies and confronting massive bosses. As you progress, you'll upgrade your arsenal to absurdly powerful levels.
Adding to the excitement, Infinity Bullets offers multiple characters, each with their own unique weapons and abilities. From space-suited warriors to cyborg ninjas and Egyptian sorcerers, the game doesn't shy away from eclectic choices. While realism might not be its strong suit, fun certainly is.
Set to be free-to-play, albeit with ad support, Infinity Bullets offers a low-risk way to dive into the genre. For those new to bullet heaven games or looking for an entry-level experience into the survivors niche, this could be the perfect starting point. However, if you're still on the fence, there's plenty of time before Infinity Bullets launches.
