We suppose that it doesn't come as an especially huge surprise, but there's a new Guilty Gear game in development over at Arc System Works. Following on from the top 8 of Guilty Gear Xrd: Rev 2 at EVO 2018, CEO Minoru Kidooka confirmed that the next title in the series is in production.
"Unfortunately, Guilty Gear general director Daisuke Ishiwatari couldn’t be here today, but he is hard at work on a new Guilty Gear title, and while we can’t show it to you today, please wait a little longer," Kidooka said.
It's currently unclear what the next stage in Guilty Gear's evolution is. The most recent title, Rev 2, is essentially an enhanced re-release of Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR-, which in itself is an enhanced re-release of Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN-. It's possible that the next game will continue this trend, but we'd love to see a truly new Guilty Gear that takes all the lessons learned from the Xrd series and builds upon them.

Cool stuff. I haven't played Xrd yet, but I've spent a lot of time on ACORE on PS3. Great game.
maybe the third „Xrd“ now ? Ugh .. ArcSys..
@NintendoFan4Lyf probably spot on name haha
I really hope they dont re-release the game every year and make it more accessible mechanics wise. ive been playing fighting games for years and i was struggling with Xrds systems. But it looked gorgeous
Rev2 is such a good iteration ...but I hope they take it to the next stage this time and don't give us a simple update.
I hope its a brand new game. I do hate the whole "new title" with a few updates
If it has a English dub, I will buy it day one, I missed it in Xrd Rev and Rev 2.
@ronb44 Let's watch the language please .
Yeah its time for a truly new GG and please just give us baiken from the get go. And lots of brand new characters.
Perhaps what id like to see most though is a complete overhaul of the online. Its always been so incredibly convoluted. They need to stream line that like sfv. Just let me simply search and enter battles instantly and when done automatically search for the next match.
If it was simplified GG would probably find a bigger audience too. Just my opinion
