Transforming itself from the side-scrolling shooter format into the tactical genre, Atlus' R-Type Command promises to be an interesting take on the well-established franchise. The general theme should still be familiar to fans of the series as it still pits your fleet of high-tech spacecraft against the Bydo Empire.

After taking a look at the first batch of screenshots we've previously seen from the game, a new set that takes a further look into the game's visuals has found its way into our hands. These screenshots definitely keep in the spirit that the series is best known for while throwing its own unique spin using the PlayStation Portable's graphical capabilities.

You can judge for yourselves by taking a look at the new screenshots we have for the game below. R-Type fans should watch out for the upcoming title as it makes its way to the handheld platform this May 6. In the meantime, enjoy!
