Nearly two years on from its initial announcement, Inti Creates has revealed that Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 is coming to Switch this summer — on 28th July to be precise.
The game was first introduced back in June 2020, so it's taken a while for this 2D action series to officially become a trilogy. Keiji Inafune has served as 'action supervisor' on the project and introduced the update as part of the NGPX stream showcasing various new releases and announcements.
Alongside the brand new trailer above, which features gameplay and story details that fans of Azure Striker Gunvolt and its sequel will be intrigued by, the makers revealed some character are which we'll round up for your delight below:
The game will be priced at $29.99, and there's a physical release in the works courtesy of Limited Run Games — we'll update with more details as they come. Let us know below if you're looking forward to this one.
Ready to take on a third helping of Gunvolting? Oh yes! Still salty about never getting your Mighty No. 9 3DS code? Certainly not... *twitches

I have Gunvolt 1 and 2, Luminous Ix 1 and 2 ... and I haven't started any of them yet. lol. SOMEDAY!!
i tried gunvolt 1 but it didnt click for me. gorgeous game.
PS - holy moses i just watch the video 😳 i will definitely be checking this one out!
This absolutely does look markedly improved over early footage!
Looks really good. I will likely pick this up when it comes out.
Nice! I really like this series.
I would absolutely love if in the physical release, they did a trilogy collection. I have the first 2 on steam but would kill to have all 3 in one spot on my switch.
I hope they haven't locked the best ending behind the hard mode like they did with iX2.
And when this releases I will finally play Luminous Ix 2. (Waiting on limited run games ).
Would love to see Recore get another chance on Switch.
still waiting on my Mighty No. 9 3DS code
I’m over it, I’m over it I swear…..
Anyway I’m very excited Inafune is involved and the game looks great!
hope there's a demo, only played the 1st game and didn't like the tag and hold a button thing, i don't think it should be a problem if she has to fight up close though.
@Chocobo_Shepherd All really good. Mighty is my favourite though.
Coincidentally, I just recently started my second play-through of ASG 2. I love this series and I'm excited that we'll finally have a true HD / Switch native Gunvolt title!
The true spiritual successor to Mega Man...really like this series. Looking forward to the 3rd entry
@Oppenheimergamer
That's way I decided against ordering from LRG instead ordering the Japanese version from Amazon Japan. Which got here 1 week after release and is the same as the digital version (English voice, a variety of language option - German, Englich, Chinese, Spanish etc).
Thus said - can't wait for Gunvolt 3 - have all games on cartridge and loved all of them
