Rumored  New  Samurai  Shodow https://www.eventhubs.com/news/2016/feb/11/new-samurai-shodown-game-rumored-be-development-series-revival-would-use-2d-gameplay-3d-graphics-and-be-released-2017/

That comes from a Japanese developer round up of what to expect in 2017 and all of them said the same thing, " We have unannounced titles, be excited", of course they do. They're developers.

Brace yourself for the politically correct "Gender Neutral Monarch of Fighters"!

So happy this kickass company who was seemingly on the brink of death so many times for more than a decade is still alive and making new games.

King of the Monsters 3: The Next Next Thing confirmed.
