    Shantae's adventure comes full circle in this long-lost sequel!

    Filling in the gaps between the original Shantae (2002) and Shantae: Risky's Revenge (2010), Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution sees Shantae protecting Sequin Land from a twisted new plot orchestrated by her nemesis, the pirate Risky Boots.

    Using a secret subterranean device, Risky is able to rotate and rearrange the continent, plunging it into chaos and giving her more costal cities to plunder. Fortunately, by harnessing this technology and the knowledge of the Relic Hunters, players will be able to turn the tables on Risky, giving Shantae new paths through environments and chance to thwart the villain's scheme.
