R-Type Dimensions III

R-Type Dimensions III is a shoot-'em-up in which you pilot the R-90 Ragnarok, a next-generation fighter built by the Earth Space Corps to stop the Bydo Empire. The Bydo are bio-mechanical life-forms humans created as weapons; the experiment escaped control, and they now exist beyond normal space, repeatedly invading human reality. After several wars and near-extinction events, they return stronger, more adaptive and more aggressive.

The Bydo invasion

You fly into hostile zones that shift between normal space and the twisted Bydo dimension. Your mission is to penetrate enemy territory, dismantle the Bydo’s core networks and destroy the heart of the empire before it engulfs humanity.

Remastered stages

Stages, bosses and projectile patterns have been rebuilt with 3D graphics, enhanced animations and detailed environments. The game also reconstructs its assets, with graphics and music that you can switch between at the press of a button. It re-envisions the classic era of R-Type, building on R-Type Dimensions and R-Type Dimensions EX with updated visuals and sounds, expanded gameplay modes and new features.

Modes and settings

Local co-op adds new scoring and survival mechanics. Infinite Mode lets you continue after death, and 3D camera settings include normal and crazy options. Customizable controls and quality-of-life features are available in the settings.
