    Sixtar Gate: STARTRAIL, a different kind of rhythm game, is now available! From humble beginnings, something truly grand will be born! Let us enjoy this experience as we work together to create a fresh new rhythm game!

    Explore the vast Sixtar system on the science vessel Ausflug with your partner Shii, the operator of the vessel.

    Featuring songs from artists any rhythm game fan would recognize, including Life is PIANO, Brain Power, and CO5M1C R4ILR0AD.
    We have also included original songs from artists like Sound Souler, KARUT, and yomoha that can only be heard in Sixtar Gate: STARTRAIL.

    Gates open and close with the flow of the song, changing the amount of lanes players will have to pay attention to. Experience a new kind of rhythm game. The implementation of this gate system means that you won't be able to let your guard down for a single instant.

    Even if you aren't that good at rhythm games or just want to play your favorite songs, other players have got your back! All of our players will need to work together to accomplish the same goal in our Unity Quest coop mode.

    Sixtar Gate: StarTrail does an incredible job of bringing IIDX-like scaling note rhythm gameplay to the Switch while injecting some unique tweaks to give this game a feel all its own. Having been passed over by the likes of PM Studio’s DJ Max series, it feels great to finally have this style of rhythm game available for playing on the go. The songlist, while not as robust as the Steam version, is still superb and bares room for growth by way of DLC and future software updates, of which at least some of them will be free, according to the developer’s Twitter page. I’ve been having an absolute blast with this title and will likely continue to do so for months to come.

    As its adaptation for Switch, the game presents variety of settings as well as the rhythm action well-fitted for joy-con environment. While the game is about a story of cute characters, the absence of tutorial and frequently changing note lane would be very challenging for beginners than it looks.
