EDIT: from the video description.

WayFoward Wrote:Join Kyoko and Misako for co-op beat-’em-up action as they brawl their way across town to rescue their boyfriends in the latest entry in the long-running River City (AKA Kunio-Kun) franchise!


The boyfriends in question are series' veterans Kunio and Riki. While we are at it, Kyoko and Misako aren't new characters either, nor is this the first time these two were portrayed as ass-kicking badasses (see: Shin Nekketsu Kōha: Kunio-tachi no Banka).

Think of it as Peach and Daisy saving Mario and Luigi for a change.

The game is available now, so go get it.

Five or so days ago it was revealed a new trailer for Gungrave: G.O.R.E

The video description is a mess....

For those who are confused, Gungrave originally started as a PS2 game. The anime adapted the original game and changed the protagonist appearance. You heard that right, the game came out BEFORE the anime. The trailer represents THE VIDEOGAME continuity.

The anime it's conclusive, while the games have their own sequels. This is the FOURTH Gungrave videogame.

1. Gungrave (2002)
2. GunGrave OVERDOSE (2004)
3. GunGrave V.R. (2017)
