Comcept and Inti Creates have revealed the first gameplay for Azure Striker Gunvolt 2 at this year’s MAGFest.

Featured above, the debut gameplay was recorded off-screen from a panel held by Comcept boss Keiji Inafune and Inti Creates staff.

Some details were also revealed for the upcoming sequel, most notably that protagonist Gunvolt will have a new design – to accomplish this Inti Creates had to completely redo all of the sprites in the game.

According to the panel, the team is putting in an extraordinary amount of time into creating “the best high-quality game they possibly can.”

A release date wasn’t confirmed, but we know the game is currently in development for the Nintendo 3DS.
