A New Guilty Gear Game Has Been Canceled
A New Guilty Gear Game Has Been Canceled
Not actually cancelled but "back to the drawing board". It's weird how 4 or 5 years between entries actually feels short these days.
In my opinion, the problems in Strive are nothing a new GG would fix better than patching Strive itself.
I think they had a good idea with Strive, as in casualize GG to make it more appealing to the masses. Yes, at the top, the game has balancing issues; but numbers can easily be tweaked. The game lacks a proper ranked mode, but so far, none of their games had one AFAIK so a new game wouldn't necessarily fix that either (ranked is announced for Strive though). The only thing I see a new game improve is new singleplayer content, and
The game had a relative peak last year (second only to the original release) when Dizzy was released – almost double the players compared to the Baiken release… while the player baseline is relatively constant, it seems the peaks are growing. Why go for a new game when you can actually build a playerbase with the current one?
I see some videos of players discovering Strive right now (almost surreal considering the game is four years old now…) and nobody is claiming about age issues with this game, as in bad netcode, performance, graphics or whatever. In fact, most people say that the game's presentation is very good and that the fights are fun. There's no need to crank out a new game for the sake of it when the teams are busy with other projects anyways, like Marvel Tokon, Hunter X Hunter and whatever.

Hmm… TBF, Strive went on way longer than anyone would've thought when it was announced… I'm pretty sure even ArcSys weren't ready for how popular it ended up being seeing it's the first time they broke their 25 character cap in GG… who even knows when it'll end? They may end up releasing one or two characters after this season ends—Jam, for example, hasn't made it in yet.
I'll be watching from afar given the direction this series is going, but it'll certainly be interesting to see where they take it from here seeing every major GG release broke new grounds one way or another.
Aren't they busy making that Marvel game? It looked very much like Guilty Gear but with different characters.
they make two games at a time. They have two teams "Red" and "Blue"
I'm sure Marvel Tokon started as a fork of the code from Strive, but ArcSys has always been a multi project studio.
Iirc, Tokon was their super secret project they had been hinting at for the past ~10 years. This result is likely more cuz Strive wasn't supposed to live for 6 seasons and a movie, but here we are.
At this point just cancel everything! Why even make music, movies, games anyway? Just cancel it all and write it off for a sweet tax break! Ultimately I no longer care, I'm so done with Capitalism.. I don't purchase anything other than food nowadays. I'm just waiting to die; Fuck this stupid existence built on money, greed and hate.
This sounds more like they cancelled a prototype that wasn't coming together and they're starting over, not just throwing the game out to cut costs.
tekken x street fighter prototype cancellation, not “pulling the plug.”
Chuds blaming its "failure" on "transing a femboy" in 3...
