Moon Chronicles for Nintendo 3DS

About Moon Chronicles for Nintendo 3DS

Moon Chronicles is a first person shooter set in an abandoned base beneath the surface of the moon. You play Major Kane, sent to investigate a strange hatch found during a mining operation and to learn why contact with the crew below was lost. Empty corridors, flickering lights and a patient silence make the base feel genuinely eerie, and the story unfolds through discoveries as you push deeper. The game is a refreshed edition of a cult handheld shooter, rebuilt with smoother visuals and a steady frame rate.

Exploration and combat share the stage. Kane carries a rifle that handles several ammo types, and a small remote robot can scout vents and tight spaces that a human cannot enter. Enemy drones and strange creatures guard the lower levels, and boss encounters test both your aim and your movement. The adventure is told in episodes, with the opening season included and its search leading toward an ancient secret under the lunar rock.

Today the search starts in a different place. The Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS closed in March 2023, so new digital purchases are no longer possible. A physical cartridge from a retailer is the way to own this game now. This atmospheric shooter arrived in episodic digital form, so there is no ordinary boxed cartridge edition for collectors to chase in game shops. Anyone who picked it up digitally before the closure can still access their purchased games on their own system.

The moon is quiet, the base is empty and something waits below.
