In 2022, Prime Matter released a new Gungrave game, called Gungrave G.O.R.E. That game was powered by Unreal Engine 4, and it was a big letdown for most Gungrave fans. Or at least that was my take on it. And, believe it or not, a full remake of it is currently in development.
A few minutes ago, Microsoft released a trailer for Gungrave GORE Blood Heat. Gungrave GORE Blood Heat will be using a new engine, and it will have numerous QoL improvements. To be more precise, it will come with new systems, more refined characters and background, the return of heritage, as well as exclusive characters.
Since Gungrave G.O.R.E. used Unreal Engine 4, I’m almost certain this remake uses Unreal Engine 5. So, I really hope this remake will not suffer from the shader compilation stutters of its predecessor. Yes, you read that right. A UE4 game also had PSO stutters. These stutters are not exclusive to UE5.
The following trailer will give you a glimpse at the graphics of this upcoming remake. It does look great, so here is hoping that it will be more polished than its original version.
There is currently no ETA on when Gungrave GORE Blood Heat will come out. Naturally, though, we’ll be sure to keep you posted.
Enjoy!
