In Shantae's third and biggest adventure to date, the hair-whipping belly dancing genie must team up with her arch-nemesis, the nefarious Risky Boots, in order to save Sequin Land from an evil curse.

Embark on a brand new adventure with Shantae, the hair-whipping belly dancing genie! When Shantae loses her genie magic, she must team up with her nemesis, the nefarious pirate Risky Boots in order to save Sequin Land from evil. As a pirate, Shantae gains new weapons and tools to advance her quest, slay monsters, battle epic bosses …and hopefully get her magic back in the bargain! But can she really trust her most deadly enemy?

In a game already packed with thrilling content, the physical boxed retail release also includes “Super Shantae Nab!!”, a new arcade-style game exclusive to this release.  

Key Features:

  • Whipping! Destroy monsters, topple bosses, and solve puzzles with your hair
  • Platforming! Run and jump through deviously designed levels
  • Exploring! Navigate a world of interconnected levels and Labyrinths
  • Belly Dancing! Dance with your Magic Lamp to suck up magic and items
  • Customizing! Earn new abilities, unlock stat-boosting artifacts & magic
  • Storytelling! Flirtatious characters and wonderfully off-beat humor
  • New abilities for this game include:
    • Flintlock Pistol (blast enemies and hit switches from afar)
    • Pirate Hat (glide on the wind using this enormous headwear)
    • Scimitar (get the drop on your foes with a skull-cracking attack from above)
    • Risky’s Boots (run at super speeds! Chain your attacks as you dash through enemies & over lethal lava)
    • Cannon (blast yourself into the air on a belch of black powder)

Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse on 3DS marks the first time a Shantae game will be made available to players as a physical release in over a decade.
