Darius Burst, stylized as Dariusburst, is a horizontal scrolling shooter for the PlayStation Portable released in Japan winter 2009.[1] It is the latest installment of the Darius series by Taito.

Like previous Darius games, Darius Burst is an offbeat sci-fi shooter set in outer space with aquatic-themed (typically fish-shaped) robotic enemies. In keeping with tradition, the game also features branching paths instead of the linear progression found in most video games. There are a total of 11 zones in the game, with 5 stages per run.

An update has been announced for the arcades titled Dariusburst Another Chronicle.[2]
