A new ESRB rating has been revealed for Gradius V, a 2004 PS2 shoot ’em up game. The platform that is listed is PlayStation 3, which suggests that the game will be re-released as a PlayStation 2 Classic.
Assuming Gradius V will be re-released, this will be the first release for the series in North America since 2008 with Gradius Rebirth on the WiiWare service. Gradius V was well received upon initial release, with critics praising its old school appeal while criticizing its difficulty and reliance upon genre conventions.
