‘Lollipop Chainsaw’ Return Being Teased by Dragami Games

Published

Fans of 2012’s Lollipop Chainsaw who have been waiting for a follow-up might just have gotten their wish. Per Dragami Games CEO Yoshimi Yasuda’s Twitter, it would appear that the developer has plans for bringing the series back.

While specifics weren’t revealed as to whether we’ll be getting a remaster or a sequel, Yasuda’s post yesterday (accompanied by an image of game protagonist Juliet Starling) tells fans to “look forward” to the series’ return. If you’re wondering how Dragami Games got involved with this, Yasuda used to be CEO of Kadokawa Games, which published Lollipop Chainsaw in Japan. Yasuda is now CEO of Dragami Games, which has taken over part of Kadokawa Games’ assets and staff.

No word on if Lollipop Chainsaw‘s co-director Goichi “Suda51” or James Gunn (who referenced the game in last year’s The Suicide Squad) will be involved in the new project. There’s also the issue of Warner Bros. owning the rights to the game here in North America, but hopefully WB plays nice.

Originally released for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, Lollipop Chainsaw (which just celebrated its 10th anniversary earlier this week) centers on 18-year-old Juliet, whose town of San Romero has become overrun with a zombie outbreak.

Thanks to Twinfinite for the additional info.

The full release of V Rising is coming up quick. And just in case the upcoming Castlevania crossover wasn’t enough, Stunlock has released a new gameplay trailer showing off the new Ruins of Mortium endgame zone for V Rising.

Once the heart of the powerful Vampire civilization, the Ruins of Mortium now lies in ruins, teeming with the cult-like remnants of Dracula’s forces. Players will encounter the Draculin, creatures tainted by Dracula’s influence, and face off against his Vampire Generals. The ultimate challenge awaits as players journey into the depths of Mortium to confront Dracula himself. While battling through his forces and disrupting dark rituals intent on reviving the ancient Vampire king, players will uncover ancient powers and prepare for the ultimate showdown against the tyrant himself.

Ruins of Mortium is just one piece of the new content for V Rising when it launches in full. Here’s a rundown of what to expect:

  • Explore a new deadly endgame zone: The Ruins of Mortium
  • Experience dynamic endgame events
  • Fight a new breed of foe and new V Blood bosses
  • New weapons, A new tier of equipment, and magic improvements
  • Improvements to castle building, decor, and storage
