The game was originally released for DSi in October 2010. An iOS port was released on October 27, 2011, featuring a new Magic Mode, while an Android version was released only in Japan. An enhanced version, Shantae: Risky's Revenge - Director's Cut, was released for Microsoft Windows in June 2014, PlayStation 4 in June 2015, Wii U in March 2016, Nintendo Switch and Xbox One in October 2020, Amazon Luna in January 2021, Stadia in February 2021, and PlayStation 5 in October 2021.
