More Extreme for Space Invaders

If hints on Japanese retailer websites are anything to go by, Taito and Square Enix are hard at work producing a sequel to last year's marvelous retro remake, Space Invaders Extreme.

Leaks on websites such as Amazon's Japanese component are listing Space Invaders Extreme 2 for a March 2009 release. Included game descriptions that reveal new modes and boss battles indicate these retailer listings are legitimate and not just guesses.

The original Space Invaders Extreme, released in late 2008, won IGN awards for Best Nintendo DS and Best PlayStation Portable Shooting Games, as well as Best Artistic Design and Best Original Score on the Nintendo handheld.
