Guilty Gear Xrd SIGN Officially Coming West for PS3 and PS4

Today, IGN can confirm that Guilty Gear Xrd SIGN is coming to North America, and will be available this fall for both PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4. The game will be localized and published by Aksys, a publisher with a proud lineage of bringing niche Japanese titles to western players. The status of its release in other western territories, including Europe, is still unknown.




Since Guilty Gear first launched in 1998, the series has been developed by fighting game studio Arc System Works, and Guilty Gear Xrd SIGN is no different. It's set a year after Guilty Gear 2: Overture, in the year 2187, and includes 15 playable characters, including an all-new antagonist, Ramlethal Valentine.

According to Aksys, Guilty Gear Xrd SIGN will retain some of the franchise's signature systems, such as Roman Cancels, but that many of these systems have been "significantly expanded and improved." Arc System Work's beautiful 2D art and animations will again be a focal point of the game, and Daisuke Ishiwatari, long-time Guilty Gear composer, is again in charge of the soundtrack.




Guilty Gear Xrd SIGN will be playable at E3, and we'll have more information about the game at that time.

I've been holding off on buying a console to see which one will get the majority of fighting games.

Leaning toward PS4, but will wait for E3.
