Trailer:

Ultimate battle action, and the epitome of the GUILTY GEAR XX series now on Steam!

Ultimate battle action!
Using the previous installation, "GUILTY GEAR XX ΛCORE CORE" as the base, players can perform "Gatling combos" by simply pressing attack buttons in sequence; or launch their opponents into mid-air with the overhead "Dust" attack; or cancelling their character's current motion to allow for more follow-ups with the "Roman Cancel"; keeping everything that makes a GUILTY GEAR game, while fine-tuning everything to reach optimal balance!
Full 25 characters cast!
Accent Core Plus marks the return of fan favorites Kliff Undersn and Justice, rounding out the cast of 25 playable characters. And in the latest Plus R version, they have been fine-tuned for more competitive play!
Refined skills, polished strategies
Based on the large amount of players' feedbacks on the previous installation, "GUILTY GEAR XX ΛCORE CORE", all characters have been closely examined and further tweaked for optimal battle performance! The entire cast have their core concepts revised and re-evaluated; balances are in place to bring out the most variation among the cast, with the ultimate aim to liven up the heat of every battle!
Devise new strategies with each character as you play!
Multiple game modes
All-time favorites "Survival Mode", "M.O.M. Mode", "Training Mode" and "Mission Mode" all included! In addition, you can view over 100 special illustrations in the "Gallery Mode" by various artists!
Ranked Match & Player Match Online Modes
Players can test their strength online, with the 2 network matching modes "Ranked Match" and "Player Match"!
Raise your rank with each win from the "Ranked Match" mode! Or, you can simply have fun online with your friends with the "Player Match"! Wins and losses are not recoreded here, so you don't have to worry about a bad record!

[Store Page]

The game is out next Tuesday!

EDIT: It is worth noting that Arc Systems Works is the publisher for this game, so this is very good news and has potential to let us see more of their games on Steam in the future.

 

[Tagyhag]

It's about time they put the best Guilty Gear on there, I think this is the first time Plus R had online as well.

Hopefully Xrd in the future!

 

[Skilletor]

Only one game behind xrd now!

 

[CheesecakeRecipe]

It's also worth mentioning that on the store page, Arc System Works is labeled as the publisher. I think this bodes well for future additions, since previous entries were handled by other companies when put onto Steam.

 

[MichaelFassbender]

They're just gonna butcher the keyboard controls, I bet.

Maaaaaaaaaan. Preparing for some bullshit way to re-map them in advance.

 

[wwm0nkey]

Only one game behind xrd now!

I would say this and Xrd are different games, but seeing as this is published by Arc Systems Works on steam and not another pub, we will probably see it sooner rather than later.

 

[Faustek]

huh....so this was what we "especially" in Europe should consider good news?

Meh, i'll still suck at it and I'll still have tons of fun

 

[SolarPowered]

Welp

Looks like they can release Xrd whenever they want. Accent Core is what some of us have wanted since the beginning, even if the netcode is probably ass on a stick. Good luck to the folks waiting for Xrd.

 

[Naite]

Finally an ASW game on steam I can get behind. This will probably be the 7th or 8th time I buy a version of Accent Core.

Hopefully I can get decent execution at the game again. I tried playing it a few weeks ago and couldn't do most of my links and combos because I got too used to Xrd timing.

added to OP

 

[Clawww]

it makes more sense to put this on steam before Xrd in a way. people will always clamor for +R on Steam, and would still want it even if Xrd were out. they would probably see less sales for +R if it came after Xrd, and perhaps Xrd sales wouldn't be affected by +R coming out first.

but really, this should have been out a long time ago, and Xrd closer to console release

 

[Sorcerer Supreme]

How many years do we have to wait for Xrd on PC now?

 

[dragonlife]

Fuck. Yes. Will buy. Nice to see it has online! I bet it will suck ass, though =/

And I think they released the trailer too early since it says "Available now" when it actually comes out the 26th And I definitely noticed ASW was the publisher. I'm hoping for some good things in the future...

 

[dmcAxle]

Might do well if they don't overprice it like BB:CSE

Please realize people won't spend more than $20 for a 3 year old fighting game with a newer version out.

Them being the pub bodes very well for future games.

 

[Momentary]

Holy hell. Today was a good day.

It'll probably be $15 like on console.

 

[Producer]

awesome news

 

[dmcAxle]

Yeah was just checking the PSN price right now. Makes sense.

This got retweeted so the hope for Xrd is good!

 

[BasilZero]

This is great. I have it wishlisted !

 

[rockman zx]

Really funny, released everywhere but not on European PSN.

 

[wwm0nkey]

Well at the very least, they wont have issues releasing it in the UK on Steam from now on.

Also Xrd is headed to PSN soon, but it should have been sooner.

 

[GaussTek]

Only one game behind xrd now!

What's the game behind xrd now? Or, do you mean this one?

 

[Rhaknar]

Never played this one, nice

 

[Tain]

Hope it's a good port and has better filtering options than the 360 and PS3 versions.

 

[Smooth Operator]

It's about time they put the best Guilty Gear on there,

Hell yeah, can't wait.

 

[BoosterDuck]

What's the game behind xrd now? Or, do you mean this one?

Blazblue Chronophantasma Extend

but it shouldn't really count since that's a different series

 

[shaowebb]

Oh shit Justice is back!? ON THIS.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

It's about time they put the best Guilty Gear on there, I think this is the first time Plus R had online as well.

Hopefully Xrd in the future!

Had online on XBL/PSN

So pumped for this. Had this on XBL but my 360's been packed up so it's nice that I'll be able to just fire this up whenever. Love love love AC.

Same, only spent a short time with it so I'm excited for this.

 

[MrDoctor]

ArcSys is publishing this themselves? Hmmm...

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Well maybe this one will sell now.

We have lots of games queued up for Steam! Some of them might even be out of your imagination, I can assure you that!

I know the 2 big titles are there, but we don't just only have 2, y'know

Yes!

 

[Saikyo]

No lobbies...still gonna buy even if the price is not localized.

Also:

But lets wait for other annoucement so more ports are confirmed.

 

[Zeyphersan]

http://steamcommunity.com/app/348550/discussions/0/617336568070144384/



Yes!

Quick, someone list what they could be talking about!

I want to believe.

 

[Saikyo]

Quick, someone list what they could be talking about!

Worst case:

X Blaze and Battle Fantasia

Best case:

BlazBlue ChronoPhantasma Extend and Guilty Gear XRD

Just my guesses : p

 

[Exr]

Seriously one of the best fighters ever made. Incredible game.

 

[Nyoro SF]

Damn that basically confirms the big boys are coming down the line. Nice.

Finally.... after many long years, Steam is going to catch up to console. And I sincerely hope that from here on out, Steam release of ASW games matches console release of ASW games.

Now if only Atlus was on board for this sort of thing, since they're the ones in charge of the ASW-made P4A Ultimax...

 

[Mulgrok]

I don't much care for fighting games, but guilty gear is fun to dink around in. Count me in!

 

[wwm0nkey]

Id say this is new thread worthy.

Ah thanks, I must be thinking of just the original release.

Not TOO hopeful about the netcode, but we'll see!

 

[Saikyo]

I am lazy, if you want to make the thread go ahead haha.

 

[BoosterDuck]

Worst case:

X Blaze and Battle Fantasia

Best case:

BlazBlue ChronoPhantasma Extend and Guilty Gear XRD and Persona 4 Arena Ultimax and Dragonball Z Extreme Butoden

Just my guesses : p

revised

 

[SoulUnison]

Is this the first Guilty Gear on Steam with actual online play?

 

[remz]

If Xrd comes to steam I'll lose my shit. That would be fantastic.

 

[Saikyo]

Dont do it for yourselves, dont ever dream of Persona Ultimax on Steam...its not gonna happen.

 

[BoosterDuck]

but Sega owns Atlus doe

 

[DiscoShark]

Having played Xrd I'm actually happier to have the opportunity to play +R. I have 0 hopes for the quality of the netcode (this is probably just a straight port of the console version) but I'm really looking forward to playing Robo-Ky again.

 

[Tagyhag]

Best case:

BlazBlue ChronoPhantasma Extend and Guilty Gear XRD and Persona 4 Arena Ultimax and Dragonball Z Extreme Butoden

revised

Don't play with my heart.
