Aside from Mighty Gunvolt Burst, Inti Creates is revealing a second brand new Switch release at BitSummit. Today, the company announced Azure Striker Gunvolt: Striker Pack, another title (or should we say titles?) for Switch.

Azure Striker Gunvolt: Striker Pack may sound familiar as it originally came out on 3DS last year. This was a retail package that featured both Azure Striker Gunvolt games.

On Switch, the two Azure Striker Gunvolt games are once again included. Striker Pack will feature HD Rumble, new music, and DLC from the 3DS release this time around.

Azure Striker Gunvolt: Striker Pack launches in Japan on August 31. We’ll update this post when we have additional information, which should be very soon.

Update:

The Azure Striker Gunvolt Striker Pack contains both Azure Striker Gunvolt and Azure Striker Gunvolt 2, two of our flagship games that originally made their home on the Nintendo 3DS. With the release of the Switch version of the Striker Pack, there are a host of new features, improvements, and bonus content that make it the truly complete version of the Azure Striker Gunvolt experience.  Let’s take a look at what’s in store!

Gameplay Upgraded from 30 FPS to 60 FPS

Since the 3DS game was created with emphasis on the visual aspects of the game, it was only able to run at 30 FPS on that system, but thanks to more powerful new hardware, 60 FPS Gunvolt is here for the first time. The biggest difference between the former 30 FPS and the new 60 FPS can be felt while playing as Copen, the super-quick, high-flying playable character from Gunvolt 2.

Entire DLC catalog from the 3DS version comes pre-loaded

All of the 3DS version DLC, which includes extra stages and bosses, bonus modes, and new songs, comes pre-loaded with the game.

HD Rumble Support

When Gunvolt uses his powerful electrical attacks, the Nintendo Switch’s HD Rumble kicks in to bring you even closer to the action.

Screen layout has been completely redone

The screen layout has been redone from a two-screen layout on the 3DS to an intuitive one-screen layout for the Switch.

Brand new song for the Nintendo Switch Version

A brand new theme song by the virtual idol Lumen (VA: Megu Sakuragawa) debuts on the Nintendo Switch!

High resolution event graphics and in-game text

On the Nintendo Switch, in-game text is much easier to read and the characters look better than ever in high resolution.

Adjustments to the game balance and general gameplay improvements

The Kudos system from Gunvolt 1 has been changed to the system from Gunvolt 2, adjustments have been made to some stages to balance out the difficulty, and other minor gameplay improvements have been added.

Numerous language settings

Compatible languages: English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese and Japanese.

Nintendo Switch Pro Controller Compatibility

Gameplay feels especially satisfying on the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller.

YESSSSSS!!

Woooooooot!

Welp my hopes of something new from them got decimated

FUCK YES, now how about that DPad Joycon so I can actually play it??

Hell yes! Nearly done with Blaster Master Zero (great game!) so getting this bitch day 1!

HOLY SHIT - They completely changed the Kudo's system in GV1 to the new one in GV2. Thank you thank you thank you. I hated the Kudo's system in the first. Required you to speed run levels, not get hit once, and deposit no kudo's. S+ were nearly unatainable. They revamp in 2 makes it more bearable. Good fuckin move!

Nice! Still haven't played the second one, so this is a nice surprise. Gonna pick this up when it releases.

Was gonna get it on 3DS, but didn't jump the gun, glad I waited!

I have the first on the 3DS, still haven't gotten the good ending on it, so this is good news to hear. Sort of not sure about the graphics, those screens don't make it look like they are improving the gameplay spots significantly but I hope this gets the game to a larger audience.

People are salty over Mighty No. 9 but Gunvolt was the best Mega Man spiritual successor we have gotten while still doing its own thing. It really deserves more praise and hopefully it will get it on the Switch. I also hope they throw in the OVA they did on the 3DS eshop as I really can't justify paying any set of cash for a video on my OG 3DS screen.

Feel for that years ago when the system was first coming out. Still somewhat regret making those purchases.
