1942 Joint Strike is a 3D sequel to the well-known arcade shooting IP 194X series for PS3/XBOX360, produced and released by Capcom's US division and Backbone Entertainment studio (established in 2003 and dissolved in 2015) in 2009. It is also the latest installment in the 194X series after many years. The game's weapon system integrates various elements of arcade 1942, 1943, and 19XX, and the game's music is composed by someone who has worked on Konami's Metal Gear Solid series
Created by Norihiko Hibino, although the classic BGM has been reproduced, the quality of the game is average, the graphics are poor, and the entire game stage is in a very dim color tone. Even when the highest brightness is adjusted, there is little change. There is also a final boss with a tiger head and snake tail. Judging from the chase battle performance in the first level, the final stage should have more shocking content. However, the final boss design is disappointing, but the overall quality of the game is still acceptable, at least more fun than 1944, and the difficulty is not high. In addition, due to the lukewarm response after the release of this game, Capcom has not released any new works for the 194X series IP so far. It is also possible that a commemorative work will be suddenly announced one day, or it may end here. I don't know if you like it. What do veteran players of the 194X series think?
In addition, after the release of the console version of this game, Capcom Mobile also released a 2D port version for mobile phones in 2009, with the game title changed to "1942 First Strike" corresponding to JAVA feature phones and IOS smartphone platforms.
