Gearshifters is a high-octane arcade shoot-’em-up roguelite developed by Red Phantom Games and published by Numskull Games. Released in October 2021 for the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, the game combines classic vehicular combat with modern progression loops.Often described as a spiritual twist on the retro arcade classic Spy Hunter, the game flips the genre by mapping its bullet-hell action onto a horizontally scrolling, top-down 3D perspective where you pilot a heavily weaponized car instead of a spaceship.
