Azure Striker Gunvolt is coming out in Japan on August 20. Siliconera reports that the North American launch will take place “in the weeks that follow, if all goes as planned.”

At the moment, Inti Creates is currently working on plans for a potential European release, which may include several languages – unlike the North American version.

Inti Creates CEO Takuya Aizu has also commented on the decision to have partial voice-acting for Azure Striker Gunvolt in North America. This edition of the game only has voices during the action portions. There will not be any voices during conversations.

About a day ago, Inti Creates released another batch of screenshots and information for Azure Striker Gunvolt. The latest details, which have since been translated, can be found after the break.

Inti Creates published a new batch of Azure Striker Gunvolt screenshots and art, which you can find in the gallery above. We also have a final Japanese release date: August 20. The game is priced at 1,960 yen.

Inti Creates was originally planning on including English voices in the North American release of Azure Striker Gunvolt. However, this is no longer in the cards.

The official Azure Striker Gunvolt Twitter account confirms:


Separate from the topic of voice acting, Inti Creates said that Azure Striker Gunvolt won’t have DLC.
