The Guilty Gear series, which began with its release on PlayStation in May 1998, has built a dedicated fan base through its fast-paced gameplay, complex mechanics, and distinctive anime-inspired visual style. Guilty Gear Strive, the latest installment in the series, was released in June 2021 and has continued to expand with new DLC characters, with the latest "Season 3" launching in August 2023. SANZIGEN had previously created an animated video celebrating Guilty Gear Strive's first anniversary in August 2022, further strengthening the connection between the game and the upcoming animated series.
