Is Mega SWIV still worth playing in 2026?

A vertical shooter from Storm, Mega SWIV has you pilot either a helicopter or an armoured vehicle against a deluge of ground and air enemies, in a snappy, cooperative scroll. The distinction between the two machines, the steady action and the two player play bring a real identity to classic vertical shooting. The polished production and the frantic pace appeal. For a fan of retro shmups or someone nostalgic for the SWIV series, the title keeps an intense arcade pleasure, especially in co op.
