New Guilty Gear Title Cancelled, Series Goes “Back to the Drawing Board” – Rumor

Despite ongoing development of additional content for Guilty Gear Strive, it’s rumored that a fresh title in the series has reportedly been shelved recently, as per insider reports from Mike Straw at Insider Gaming.

It seems that the series might need some rethinking, according to certain reports, but it doesn’t automatically mean it’s been shelved. Arc System Works has not explicitly mentioned a new Guilty Gear project, and given their current involvement with Strive, it could be quite some time before we hear official news. They are currently also busy with other projects like Damon and Baby, Dear me, I was… and Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls, not forgetting to provide updates for Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising.

Guilty Gear Strive, the latest installment in the Guilty Gear series, can be played on PS4, PS5, PC, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. Released in 2021, it introduced a fresh take on its gameplay formula with new features like Wall Break and the elimination of Instant Kills. As of July 2024, it has amassed over three million players worldwide and most recently expanded its character roster by adding Unika from the Guilty Gear Strive: Dual Rulers anime as a downloadable content (DLC) character.

In the upcoming lineup is Lucy, a character from “Cyberpunk: Edgerunners,” though her launch date has yet to be announced. Keep an eye out for further announcements until then.
