Shantae and the Seven Sirens is the latest installment in Wayforward Technologies long-running series that has been evolving from one platform to another since the original released for the Gameboy Colour back in 2002. While the colours have always been bright and the characters have always been charming, Wayforward continues to outdo themselves with Seven Sirens, which is the fifth in the franchise. While the series has remained a 2D platformer over the years, metroidvania elements have been expanded upon over the years in a formula that Wayforward continues to improve upon with Seven Sirens.

Fans of the series may feel a sense of déjà vu when playing through the extremely short Shantae and the Seven Sirens. But it’s still a game worth your time, even if it doesn’t meet the high bar set by the rest of the series.
