Marvelous’ boisterous Senran Kagura series is to receive two new entries on the PlayStation 4. The first and most notable of these is Senran Kagura Seven, which is set to release Fall 2018 in Japan. No other details have been announced at this time.
The publisher’s also announced Senran Kagura Burst Re:Newal for the PS4, a remake of the original Nintendo 3DS title. However, while the 2014 handheld release was a side-scroller, this will be a full 3D action game, and will also include scenarios from the very first entry in the series, Skirting Shadows. It’s basically being billed as the ultimate franchise entry point.
The release is due out on 22nd February in Japan, with no word on a Western localisation yet. Both games were announced as part of a Senran Kagura event, where a pinball spin-off was also announced for the Nintendo Switch. Crazy times!

The Switch game was announced ages ago.
But hey look at you guys getting all the games that made the 3DS while Switch gets...err...Resident Evil Revelations again.
i hope we get them, yeah it's very fanservicy but they are fun action games
@Lumine They probably will.
@BLP_Software Senran Kagura games have been coming out on PlayStation platforms for ages?
@get2sammyb And you guys just got Monster Hunter and seemingly Dragon Quest back. Would you like Zelda too? Or maybe Pokemon?
Point is if it WAS on 3DS and had any success its now NOT on Switch.
And with regards to @Lumine just like with DQ11 if it was coming to Switch....why havent they said or shown it? Like MANY third party games.
With any luck though Sammy youll get Yokai Watch and Layton from Level5.
Look at it this way. Capcom just announced old ports for $20 a piece. You guys get new games. Switch gets a pinball spin off as you gleefully noted with a little joy at the misfortune.
Kinda on the fence on that water gun spin off. Hopefully there will be a demo.
@BLP_Software It wasn't glee? And why do you treat people who own these consoles like teams? "You guys"?
Anyone's free to buy whatever platform they like, just like publishers are free to release their games wherever they like. I don't even like the Senran Kagura games much, so I don't really care either way!
Never use the word flop in relation to titties. You're spoiling a good thing with such gross verbiage.
@get2sammyb I refer to you like teams because you call yourselves the PlayStation Nation. And then we have your favourite The House of Mario.
@BLP_Software I'm sure you'd be happy at this point if Nintendo went 3rd Party as some others would on here but they'd needa flop w thier consoles left n right losing lots of money left n right...
@Derpie1 No I wouldnt. If they did that the industry would siffer a bit.
Id be happy if we actually saw half the games from third parties we have been told are coming! God knows the DQ11 port is a myth. What about Monster Hunter XX localised? Apparently they are getting Resident Evil Revelations Collection in late 2017.
Stardew Valley and Rocket League have had their release dates mysteriously altered. We know nothing about WWE2K18 except it exists.
See the problem?
@Lumine because the Switch is already getting Shinobi Reflect and the aforementioned pinball game? This stuff needs some room to sell, too.
@BLP_Software well the thing is 3rd Parties and Nintendo I suppose are tryna be on the same page
Would be great if ONE Direct was announced that addresses EVERYTHING right there
I'm getting really fed up of threads on this site looking like they belong on Nintendo Life. Why are we having a discussion about Nintendo's third-party relations?
It's a pity they're abandoning the side-scrolling gameplay for yet another full 3D musou-style game. I liked the original Shinovi Versus, but I didn't want to see every action-based SK game become a copy of it.
Btw, the 3DS version of Burst had the entire original game also, so those scenarios won't be only on the PS4 as the article made it sound like. But nice that its remade into this remake også
(I have both the Japanese original and Burst)
Storywise Burst is good. Would be really fun if they made the Visual novel parts animated (there are certain things I would like to see in addition to just read)
Uh Oh!
S ammy is getting tired of everyone on here talking about the N
W hatever is he going to do?
I s it time for the banhammer?
T he time is coming nigh
C ould we please stay on topic?
H ell is to be paid if not.
Though seriously, to be fair, this is one of the few articles where there was a direct correlation to Nintendo hardware and 3rd party support. To the point that Nintendo and the Switch was mentioned in the article. On the other hand, though I don't comment much, I have noticed the threads increasingly overtaken by talk of Nintendo and the Switch even when it's not warranted, so there's that. I can see where that would be tiresome (at least with content where Nintendo or other platforms aren't mentioned)
I don't get the whole "you, us, we and them" team mentality either, (even the Sony fans on this site does it. See comment #2) but then again, I'm a multi platform owner and I just play a game on whatever system it makes personal sense for me to play on. I get that not everybody can do that or even want to do that.
On topic: I'll more than likely give Burst Re:Newal a go, but like Ralizah, I'm a little disappointed that side scrolling gameplay is getting the ax. ( Though I suppose it makes sense for the given hardware)
@get2sammyb It's that BLP lad. Almost every article he posts in, he has to mention the Switch or Nintendo or some derogatory comment about the PS4. Yeah, I said it.
Yeah wrap them up I'll take both.
