Söldner-X 2 Intensifies the Bullet Dodging

New screenshots for Söldner-X 2: Final Prototype have surfaced and this game is looking absolutely amazing. What's interesting is that it looks like EastAsiaSoft is going more of a bullet-hell type of direction with the sequel. The first game was a little more similar to R-Type and Gradius style with having to avoid the environments and obstacles. These brightly-colored bullet patterns make Söldner-X 2 seem more like side-scrolling bullet-hell. Since these are just solitary screenshots there very well could be dangerously tight flight paths, but these new screens are chock full o' bullets. I can't wait to play this. Check out the whole colorful gallery at Kotaku.

Söldner-X 2 increases the ships, the colors, the bullets...

...and the giant scary robo-faces.
