It’s much more mighty now
IntiCreate’s Azure Striker Gunvolt is a fantastic action platformer, reminiscent of the best of Mega Man, with a little Ninja Gaiden thrown in. There have been plenty of other games in the series, but none as big or with the scope of the latest.
Gunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avenger iX is the newest Gunvolt game, and also a mouthful to say. That’s okay, because it’s clearly as high energy as its name implies. The 2D action of the series makes a comeback, but now players put on the shoes of anti-hero Copen, who can absorb bullets, perform special jumps, and mark his enemies for attack.
And hey, that dooooope 16-bit aesthetic is our jam.
Gunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avenger iX arrives this September 26 for Switch, PS4 and PC.
