Been looking for some PS4 shmups. I have Resogun and Jamestown. Do you know of others? Of course there is Stardust Ultra.

Currently playing project root. Cheap, and quite challenging.  Reminds me of desert strike on the megaDrive.

Aqua kitty was pretty fun.  Old Skool style. (Modern day defender)

Aces of the Luftwaffe.  Another cheap indie offering.

Pixel junk shooter ultimate.

Nano assault new x.  Real nice visuals - pretty challenging.

I totally loved this one. A hell of a lot of fun on co-op as well!

I am waiting for Raiden V to hit the Xbone soon.  Some other company is also putting big shmups on X1

Will it be retail or digital? U think it will come to PS4 too?

Thanks, just bought Project Root. Aqua Kitty looks kind of cool, too. Just downloaded demo for Nano Assault.

Well, I downloaded almost all the recommendations in this thread. In case anyone is looking for a true next gen shmup, I stumbled across this Japanese Ps4 game called ''Astebreed''. It's a gorgeous 2.5 d mech shmup. You need a Japanese account and yen to purchase it. It's only like 11 bucks. I highly recommend it.

I belive they said I t will be both. Also the site is just saying X1.  The developer along with another shmup developer out of JP both said they are developing for X1 only right now.
