Inti Creates has announced two new Gunvolt-related titles for the Nintendo Switch 2 at Bit Summit, including a collection and a new spin-off sequel, with both projects in active development.
Inti Creates announced two new projects at Bit Summit, both tied to the Azure Striker Gunvolt series and targeting the Nintendo Switch 2. The first is the Azure Striker Gunvolt Trilogy Enhanced collection, a Switch 2 port of the three mainline games that adds high framerate and resolution support. It also includes a new story mode called Azure Striker Gunvolt GX, which features a tag-team duo of Gunvolt and Copen with new abilities and an Inspiration system. The collection is set to launch this year, and the studio has left the door open for other platforms.
The second announcement is Gunvolt Chronicles Luminous Avenger iX 3, a new 2D action game for Nintendo Switch 2 and PC via Steam. It is the third entry in the Copen-focused spin-off series and introduces twin energy swords and a Code Customizer system. The game has a 2027 release window. A demo for the iX 1+2 Dual Collection, which brings the first two spin-off games to modern platforms, is playable at the event.
Both announcements were made on the same day at Bit Summit, showing Inti Creates is investing in the Gunvolt franchise as a key part of its lineup for Nintendo's next console. The new story mode in the collection and the third spin-off entry indicate the studio is expanding the series rather than simply re-releasing older titles.
