After Burner Dated

SEGA have revealed that After Burner Climax will be making its American debut on the 21st April for XBLA and 22nd April for PSN.

The game, which is an HD remake of the classic franchise, will let users take to the cockpit and kick some enemy butt in fine style thanks to the reworked controls and amazing looking visuals.

Anyone from the 1986 era will be wetting their pants at this news, after all who doesn’t want to play this? I know I have my Top Gun soundtrack at the ready.

Unfortunately we do not have any confirmation for the European PSN release, although with the XBLA version launching the day before, we are hoping that it will appear on the store on the same day as the US PSN release.

Thanks, Joystiq
