Good news Razion EX gets a digital download release in the Switch eShop on September 16th 2021 (Europe + North America).
After lots of critics and discussion with the community we came around. If you like 16 bit CGI horizontal shmups please give it a try. The reprint comes 2022.
Good news. Due to continuing strong demand in our physical releases we will reprint both Razion EX (standard/regular) and Gunlord X (standard/regular) in 2022. We plan to do 1000 units.
For Gunlord X it's the 2nd and final reprint.
We are also working on something for PS4 fans.
Mockups and proto shots of Gunlord 2 running on our new 32 bit engine called JAMMA-engine. It will be kicked off on 8. May with the GLX CE and will be released in the next 2 years on modern gaming platforms.
Here is the announcement trailer for our next physical Nintendo Switch game: Razion EX
A better and longer version can be found here:
Official website with information about the game system, controls, screenshots etc.
We are happy to announce that our first physical release for Nintendo Switch "Gunlord X" will be available for order on 30th May 2020. 18:00 German time zone (Berlin)
Actual shipping starts 8th June.
Very interesting SNK NEOGEO dev kit. It has both MVS and AES slots, Memorycards, credit LEDs and other interesting features. By far the most awesome SNK DEV artifact I have ever seen.
We are happy to finally have the release date for our first PC/Steam game.
Gunvein releases on Steam this Friday 11th November.
Nintendo Switch follows early next year. PS4/Xbox later next year.
Press kit:
While you wait for the awesome Turrican collection, why not give our 32bit-era genre interpretation a chance on eShop/PSN?
We would love to make a 32bit Gunlord 2 ;-)

Sorry needed to delete the former tweet. It had the shipping date instead of sale
Don't worry if you didn't get a Razion EX: there is still a chance. We start sales of the remaining condition B stock in late July 2021. We will announce a date about one week in advance. As sales are still unhealthy fast, we are looking into the option of a RE reprint.
Shipping of Razion EX CE and RE start next week. We will need about 14 days to process all orders.
We also made a final reprint of Razion EX RE (1000 units) which is now available here:
For details look in our newsletter or FB.
Warehouse clearance for Razion EX (used) and Gunlord X (used)

More details are in the newsletter and blog.
1st batch of pre-orders for the Gunvein LE and RE NSW start 14th October 2023 21:00 CEST (9 PM). More units will be made available in January 2024. For more information see our newsletter or blog:
We are postponing the release of Gunvein by a little to the first half of November.
To help addressing issues brought up during the demo, making stages smoother, lowering difficulty, optimizations, etc.
Showing support by wishlisting is appreciated. This helps with discovery.
2/2 We will just reprint in 1000-2000 units steps until the market is satisfied. Reprinting hopefully also reduces the interest of speculators in the standard/regular editions.
The remaining stock of Razion EX (RE and LE) in condition B will be sold as used on 31th July 2021 21:00 (9 PM CEST)

The 3rd batch of KB AES PCBs arrived. We need 2 weeks to program, test and assemble. Once we know an exact shipping date we will write a newsletter in the old shop system. Plan is to ship end of November/latest 1. week of December.
Fast Striker AES and KB reprints next in 2024.
Seems we completely underestimated the demand.
For the 2nd batch and future games we will limit sales to 1 copy of each.
Both security checks and bot protection were fully enabled.
We only got 16 orders from UK. The need to order 4 units for UK did not lead to the quick sold out
We updated the Gunvein demo to the newest build.
Some major changes. Details can be found in the community hub.
Showing support by wishlisting is appreciated. This helps with discovery.
If you did'nt get the standard of Razion EX don't worry. The Razion EX standard/regular edition was just a small reprint as the focus is on the new CE. But the standard edition of Razion EX is eligible for a final reprint in 2024 probably together with a new release .
1/2 Regarding pre orders for our games. That's easier said than done, without special contract PayPal does not allow anymore having more than 14 days between payment and "in-stock" date. It also results in very long waiting times, which we want to avoid after the past problems.

Dear customers, we unfortunately need to postpone the release of Gunlord X regular and CE again to at least March. Due to delays with the cloth map and figurine manufacturing.
@nintendolife
Gunlord X heavily upgraded, we consider it kinda a remake. We will have more information in the coming weeks. We just couldn't pass the chance to have this early demo on the Factor 5 booth.

@furrtek
It was planned for online highscore ranking and software updates. The lag was to high for multiplayer. But we needed to give up on it and on hardware dev for the time being as the engineer has no time for us 😢
