Capcom Senior Producer Andrew Szymanski announced the new game during a panel at San Diego Comic Con. The game is being developed by Double Helix Games, the Californian team behind Killer Instinct, in conjunction with a Japanese team including some of the franchises creators.
Development has been focused on creating an ultra-responsive control system with combat options in all contexts, including standing, running, wall climbing, hanging, aerial and more. You can see this in action in the gameplay footage below, along with the announce trailer and some high-res screens.
Unlike past Strider games, the HD revival boasts an interconnected world with non-linear exploration. Rather than traditional levels, players will be able to return to previously explored areas and take advantage of an upgrade system to access new, previously inaccessible areas.
