Inti Creates has officially announced Gunvolt Chronicles: Luminous Avenger iX 3, the third entry in its high-flying 2D action spin-off series.
The studio confirmed the game will arrive sometime in 2027 for Switch 2 and PC, and released a trailer that outlines the narrative thrust and several new gameplay systems.
In the announcement trailer, the publisher returns protagonist Copen to his home world where he confronts a fresh, otherworldly threat.
A mysterious girl appears to deliver warnings about invaders identified as "iX Bearers." Inti Creates also showcases new combat options: the twin energy swords called "Divide Edge," intended to intensify the series' signature platforming and action combat.
Rewriting the core announcement in journalistic terms: Inti Creates says the third installment places Copen against a new breed of enemies known as iX Bearers, introduced alongside a new melee weapon, the Divide Edge.
The studio also highlighted a deeper customization layer — the Code Customizer system — which will let players tailor Copen's capabilities by altering code-based parameters.
