Green Beret was an action arcade game released by Konami in 1985. It is remembered for its Cold War setting and its reliance on the player using mainly a knife to dispatch enemies, although you were able to collect many different weapons including the flame thrower. Green Beret was one of the hardest games I had ever played on the Amstrad and yet was one of the games that gave me the best memories! So why is this game getting another mention on IRN? Well as of 5am, Earok gave us the heads up that the upcoming Scorpion Engine developed Amiga version, has just got a brand new twitter Tease!

Yes indeed thanks to another heads up from Erik Hogan via the Scorpion Engine Facebook page, we have learnt that Green Beret is still coming to the Amiga coded by Dante Mendes and will hopefully be released via the AmiGameJam at some point in the near future. Although there's not much else to say regarding the development, we can say you'll need to be prepared for high level difficulty as you try your utmost to get past the helicopter mission and avoid the dogs!
