GUILTY GEAR -STRIVE- ", the latest title in the "GUILTY GEAR" series, is scheduled for release on April 9, 2021 (Friday).
The other day, some information about the game's offline mode was released, and some game screens were also unveiled.
The "GUILTY GEAR" series is so good that you can drink just from the game screens.
January of 2021 will soon be over, and the release of "GUILTY GEAR -STRIVE-" is just over two months away, and the product trailer for "GUILTY GEAR -STRIVE-" has finally been released!
The information on the battle system and game modes has been released!
New battle system!
GUILTY GEAR -STRIVE-" is the latest title in the "GUILTY GEAR" series, so it retains the best of the series while evolving in new ways!
The " Romancancancel " system, which allows players to cancel any previous action, is still in full force in this title.
Whether you cancel your own attack to connect a combo, or survive an opponent's attack while guarding, mastering Romancancancancel will have an impact on the outcome of the game, so make sure you get the timing just right in this title!
The game will also feature the new "Wall Break " element that has been shown in the previous videos!
As is the case in all gaming, if you are cornered on the edge of the stage, you are basically at an overwhelming disadvantage and often get KOed.
However, in "GUILTY GEAR -STRIVE-", if an opponent is cornered on the edge of the stage and a certain attack is made, the wall on the edge of the stage will be destroyed with a flashy effect and the opponent will be blown away to another stage! </>
The advantage is that your character will be strengthened for a certain period of time, such as by dealing additional damage to the opponent who blows you up, as well as increasing your own attack power, but the battle will be partitioned off at the center of the stage, so the advantage at the edge of the stage is gone.
This means that the old theory of keeping the opponent at the edge of the stage will no longer apply, and a new game of chance can be enjoyed!
We can't wait to see what kind of offensive patterns will be developed by the players!
Additional offline mode released!

Along with the recent announcement, additional offline modes have now been released!
