Upcoming anime fighter Guilty Gear Strive has been delayed to early 2021, according to a tweet from Arc System Works.
“While our company’s staff and our business partners are putting in a sincere effort in dealing with the changes due to the spread of Covid-19, every aspect of our development schedule has faced delays,” says Takeshi Yamanaka, producer of Guilty Gear Strive.
“In addition,” he continues, “We have decided to set up a schedule to further improve the quality of the game responding to everyone’s help and feedback from the recent closed beta test”.
While fans seem genuinely excited for the fourth major instalment in the iconic Guilty Gear franchise, the recent closed beta test drew its share of notes from fans for the team to address.
Among them were the game’s high damage output, obtuse lobby system as well as a visual overhaul of the game’s UI.
Guilty Gear Strive was originally slated for a late 2020 release, but will now be pushed to early 2021 on Playstation 4.
