Finally, the most recent edition ofGuilty Gearis coming over to the US. Aksys Games has announced that they will be bringing the fighter over in both PS2 and Wii flavors. As of right now, the game is slated to be released in the Fall of this year.
So, why should you buyAccent Core? Well, if you’re aGuilty Gearfan, then it’s just an automatic purchase. For the rest of you, the game will be featuring re-recorded voicework, some new artwork, and the ability to make a fool of yourself by playing with the Wii waggle controls.
So, once a firm release date has been announced, expect me to harass the rest of the review crew into buying the game. The game hasn’t been rated by the ESRB, but I doubt that it’ll run into any problems — unless they have a problem withBridget,forsomereason. (For those who really don’t know, Bridget isneverworksafe.)
Check out the press release with a full mention of the additions after the jump.
