Gameplay

Mighty Gunvolt Mighty Gunvolt on Steam

Mighty Gunvolt is an 8-bit style platform game in the style of Mega Man, in which players shoot their way through five main stages (as well as additional stages available as downloadable content). Players can play as one of three characters; Gunvolt from Azure Striker Gunvolt, Beck from Mighty No. 9, and Ekoro from Gal*Gun, each with their own unique abilities. Gunvolt can perform a double jump and use a chargeable lightning attack, Ekoro can float in mid-air and convert certain enemies to her side, and Beck can use slides and tackles to access certain areas and charge through opponents.

All stages end in a boss battle, many of which are the Sumeragi adepts of Azure Striker Gunvolt, but with some differences in their attacks or patterns. Additionally, one of the adepts, Zonda, actually steps in and fights the player character, in a reverse of their scene in Azure Striker Gunvolt, where Copen kills Zonda and fights instead.

Development

Mighty Gunvolt was first released on the Nintendo eShop alongside Azure Striker Gunvolt as a free download for players who purchased the game, and was later released as a standalone title. A version update was released in November 2014, along with downloadable content containing four additional levels. A port for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita, titled Gal Gunvolt, was released in August 2015, containing all downloadable stages.
