Thirty years after haunting the Game Boy, Retro-Bit Publishing is excited to announce a brand-new one-time physical re-release of the enemy-controlling action game Avenging Spirit by Jaleco.

Originally released as an arcade cabinet in 1991 and ported one year later to the Game Boy, Avenging Spirit tells the story of a young man tragically murdered trying to stop a mysterious crime syndicate from kidnapping his girlfriend. Now, back from the dead as a ghost, the man teams up with his girlfriend's paranormal researcher father to rescue Gennifer and get his revenge on the criminal organization. He'll do this by possessing a wide assortment of enemy characters, including gangsters, commandos, robots, hitmen, mages and even vampires - all of which come with their own unique moves and abilities.

Initially released in extremely limited quantities, Avenging Spirit remains one of the most sought-after Game Boy titles of all time. The influential possessing mechanics have made it a cult classic for those in the know, but few have been able to get their hands on this supernatural action game. This Retro-Bit Publishing will be the first time in three decades that gamers will be able to buy a physical copy of Avenging Spirit without spending hundreds (if not thousands) of dollars in the secondary markets.

GET INTO THE SPIRIT!

Gang members have kidnapped your girlfriend and slain you in the process. On top of that, she’s being held for ransom unless her father gives up his research on “ghost energy”. He tasks you with getting her back the only way you can - by possessing others to get things done! Defeat the gang across 6 stages by using over 20 different hosts in this action-packed portable classic!
