Particulars of the upcoming remake from the unique announcement through producer Yoshimi Yasuda:
14 years have handed since I began the Lollipop Chainsaw challenge.
Lollipop Chainsaw was born on account of Suda 51 discussing creating a brand new sport with me. I noticed nice potential in Grasshopper Manufacture‘s proposal, and only one month after Kadokawa Video games was based April 2009, we began the event challenge on Lollipop Chainsaw, in Might 2009.
As Suda-san was very busy dealing with improvement on different initiatives on the time, I served as director and producer, making a joint improvement staff consisting of employees from Grasshopper Manufacture and Kadokawa Video games, overseeing improvement straight. Suda-san appeared over the sport design and supervised the challenge as an govt producer.
In January 2010, assistance from a good friend of mine working at Warner Bros. led to us efficiently greedy an opportunity with the Warner Bros. greenlight committee, and Warner Bros. thus changing into the writer for the sport in all areas exterior of Asia. Moreover, a Warner Bros. senior supervisor recommended that we now have the sport’s script rewritten, and that we go away it to movie director James Gunn, which we gladly agreed to.
All of this luck resulted in Lollipop Chainsaw, which launched in June 2012, being cherished by many gamers everywhere in the world, promoting over 1,000,000 models worldwide.
Sadly, numerous components resulted in issues making it in order that followers can not simply play Lollipop Chainsaw, and it has been a while since gamers haven’t been in a position to entry the sport on present consoles.
We, the unique improvement employees on Lollipop Chainsaw, consider the sport as very valuable to us, and didn’t wish to go away it in limbo, the place gamers who wish to play it can’t. As such, we bought the Lollipop Chainsaw mental property from Kadokawa Video games, and determined to develop a remake. We have now already contacted Warner Bros. about improvement, and are being supported by them on this endeavor.
One factor that we now have to inform followers of the unique sport is that though the unique employees are engaged on the remake, there might be parts which can be totally different from the unique. As an illustration, the unique sport had 15 licensed songs used within the soundtrack, however it’s sadly tough for us to implement all of them this time. Consequently, apart from a number of licensed tracks, the soundtrack will consist of recent music. Moreover, since we now have entry to consoles with larger specs, we might be taking a extra practical method to the graphics this time.
In any case, our purpose is to make it simpler for players who wish to play Lollipop Chainsaw to take action. Please sit up for the sport’s 2023 launch.
Sincerely,
Lollipop Chainsaw Producer
Yoshimi Yasuda
