Dragami Games has announced that the chaotic adventures of the chainsaw lady are coming to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
The original game was developed by Grasshopper Manufacture and directed by Suda51 (Goichi Suda). It was released for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in June 2012. RePOP is a definitive version of the game, leaving the story unchanged and focusing on quality of life improvements and additional gameplay content. Follow Juliet, a descendant of zombie hunters, as she fights alongside her boyfriend and family to stop a zombie apocalypse that begins in her high school on Juliet’s 18th birthday.
The game’s resolution has been increased to Full HD and loading times have been greatly reduced. The chainsaw action has been speeded up with the introduction of the Chained Hits Hunting system, where chaining multiple hits in a row increases the player’s attack speed. Input times for combo actions have been adjusted to better match player expectations. The Chainsaw Blaster action has been improved with the addition of auto-lock and auto-fire modes that can be toggled, and an increased maximum ammo count of 99. The player can now use combo actions immediately at the start of the game.
Separate from the Original Mode, a RePOP Mode has been added, featuring a unique and colorful pop art-inspired art style for damage effects. Unique new chainsaws have been added with distinctly different features. There are 30 costumes, more than the number of costumes in the original game. Combined with the addition of 4 new hair colors and 4 new chainsaws, there are 750 different possible combinations. Juliet’s room has been expanded with more features. A time attack mode with ranking has been added.
Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP will be released on September 12 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PC (Steam), and Nintendo Switch, as it has been moved up (we reported this in the news earlier; it was surprising to hear that it wasn’t a delay for once). It will be released in Japan and Asia on September 26th. PlayStation 4 and Xbox One will only get the game digitally, but it will come in port sometime in November. The price will be $45.
