Kid Icarus: Uprising for the Nintendo 3DS is a fast-paced and action-packed blend of aerial and ground-based shooting built on elegantly intuitive and streamlined play control.

One of the most beloved franchises in Nintendo's long history makes its glorious return in spectacular 3D! Pit of Kid Icarus fame is back in a new game designed specifically for the Nintendo 3DS system, by Masahiro Sakurai, creator of the Kirby and Super Smash Bros. franchises, and his development team at Project Sora.

Find and collect numerous weapons and items that offer bonuses and ability boosts! Players can choose between a basic Blade, basic Claws and a basic Orbitar weapon. Blades are well-balanced, Claws have limited reach but increase running speed and the Orbitars can shoot two shots that grow in power over distance.

Players can choose weapons before they send Pit into battle, giving them countless layers of strategies in each level!
