Arc System Works, the development team behind such fighting games as BlazBlue and Hokuto no Ken, have announced their intentions to revitalise the Guilty Gear franchise with a new release on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
When the possibility of a crossover video game between Guilty Gear and BlazBlue arose during an interview with Tomo Ohno, Business Development Director of Arcsys, he had this to say: “Personally I don’t like that idea,” Ohno replied. “What we can say about Guilty Gear is that it is not dead yet. It has not ended. The producer/creator of Guilty Gear, Daisuke Ishiwatari, his comment for this meeting [was] ‘I have the full intention to create Guilty Gear for PlayStation 3 and 360.’ “
Ohno also mentioned, “It’s a different world – it’s not BlazBlue taking over Guilty Gear, but Guilty Gear is an important thing for us and we want to make sure fans of Guilty Gear continue to have fun in that world. BlazBlue is a new thing, and there might be some crossover but at the moment we don’t have any plans.”.
With the release of BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger on PS3/Xbox 360 in Europe on February 1st 2010, and Continuum Shift having been released in Japanese arcades, it doesn't seem like Arc System Works have any intention of stopping any time soon.
