Cotton Reboot! High Tension!: The jam-packed shoot ‘em up game has me pumped for October 22

It’s safe to say October is going to be jam-packed with gaming goals. So how about adding Reboot! High Tension! to the mix for some insane gaming goals with a shoot ‘em up title? Oh yes.

It’s pure fun and excitement brewing. Peep the deets and remember October 22.

If Cotton Reboot! wasn’t enough, Clear River Games is also bringing Cotton Reboot! High Tension! to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 players!

First released five years ago, Cotton Reboot! High Tension! is the second instalment in the Reboot series by Beep, developed by Studio Siesta/Rocket Engine. Far from being the sweet treats Cotton set out to recover in Cotton Reboot!, in Cotton Reboot! High Tension! the dark force is a Willow that’s taken human form. It looks like you can have too much sugar as this Willow is evil personified!

Building on the gameplay of Cotton Reboot!, players will recognise classic abilities such as Fire Dragon and Lighting in Cotton Reboot! High Tension!, but they will also find new mechanics to master. High Tension sees enemy attacks become more extreme, but in turn players will be able to harness powerful hidden magic to boost their score. Plus the Fever system of Cotton Reboot! makes a comeback, only this time bigger and better as Willow Fever.
