If you’re eager for new Gunvolt games, you might be waiting a while – Inti Creates CEO Takuya Aizu reveals that the Japanese developer will be taking a break from the series.
In response to a fan’s question about future Gunvolt projects, Aizu revealed that the series has ended “for now” while teasing a new project. Here’s exactly what he had to say, thanks to the translation Noisy pixel (along with an additional clarification, reiterating that the developer isn’t completely done with the series):
“Thank you so much! I’m glad you’ve been playing since Mega Man Zero. The Gunvolt series has come to an end for now, but I think it’s time to start thinking about future development. Even though it’s not Gunvolt, look forward to our brand new project!”
TL Note: the word used here is 一段落, which means “to reach a stopping place, to settle down (before the next stage)”. This doesn’t necessarily mean that the Gunvolt series has stopped altogether; it just means he’ll move on from it for the time being. – Noisy pixel
If you haven’t played Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (released on Switch last July), it’s worth checking out. We called it another cracking Mega Man Zero-like game, awarding it eight out of ten stars. It has also received a number of updates since its release.
