Arc System Works has announced that Guilty Gear Strive will be released on April 9, 2021 on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and PC. For those who wish to upgrade to the Deluxe or Ultimate Edition, the game will be playable starting April 6, 2021.
The release date was given in conjunction with a new trailer promising that Guilty Gear Strive is “A New Beginning for the Series” which began in 1998 with the original Guilty Gear on PlayStation.
This fighting game features an amazing visual style with hybrid 2D / 3D graphics with cell shadows. There will also be a fully voiced story mode that is said to close out Guilty Gear’s history, which spans over 20 years. There will also be new characters joining fan favorites and robust network code.
Guilty Gear Strive was originally scheduled to be released in 2020, but was delayed until 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The roster includes characters like Sol Badguy, Ky Kiske, May, Faust, Potemkin, Chipp Zanuff, Zato-1, Millia Rage, and Axl Low. As part of our IGN Expo, we revealed that Ramlethal Valentine will be returning to Guilty Gear Strive, a female fighter who specializes in controlling the midrange and uses two great swords as her primary weapons (carried by her fellow Lucifero fliers).
