Update: Bumped to the top. The videos have now been pulled by Nintendo. We’ve added in an alternate with all five clips.
Obviously you shouldn’t check out these videos if you’re wary of spoilers… though I imagine now we’ll be receiving official confirmations soon. Head past the break for the off-screen videos
Inti Creates just wrapped up development on Azure Striker Gunvolt, but the studio already seems to be thinking about a sequel. The company said in its latest “Interactive Wave” video that a follow-up is likely for the future. However, Inti Creates still encourages fans to share their interest in a potential sequel.
We’ll also casually mention here that downloadable content is coming to Mighty Gunvolt. More stages are currently being worked on, though further details are not known.
Image & Form will soon be announcing the next entry in the “SteamWorld” series.
In an interview with Prankster101 Productions, lead programmer Olle Hakannson mentioned that a reveal should be taking place in “maybe a month” or so. The discussion took place at GDC Europe, so the announcement should only be a few weeks away.
It’s also worth mentioning that Hakannson teased other projects from Image & Form as well. The studio is planning “at least one game for every platform, like a specific game for each platform.”
Check out some excerpts from the interview below. You’ll also find the full talk here.

Alphadia Genesis is heading to the North American Wii U eShop this fall, but Europe will be getting the game this year as well.
Natsume confirmed on Twitter earlier today:
Hot tempered & squabbles frequently with party members. Alphadia Genesis arrives on the North American AND European WiiU eShop this year 😀

Alphadia Genesis will be available in the states this fall. Hopefully the European release won’t be too far behind!
