As confirmed by Inti Creates, Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 is heading to the PC. However, it won’t be doing so alongside the Switch version. Instead, the game will see a much later release date with a Winter 2022 release date.
As stated by the recent tweet from the official Inti Creates Twitter account, development on the PC version has just “begun.” The team is targeting a Winter 2022 release date. However, an actual release date hasn’t been confirmed yet.
A page for the game has already been spotted on Steam.
More details of the PC port of Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 will be confirmed at a later date. More likely during Gamescom 2022 or the Tokyo Game Show 2022.
Important Announcement:

Once a Nintendo Switch exclusive, Azure Gunvolt 3 is also heading to the Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and now the PC.
Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 was initially announced during the 2020 Bitsummit Gaiden event. Kirin, the katana-wielding protagonist, has been added to the roster, alongside Gunvolt. Keiji Inafune has also joined up with Inti Create to work on the title, despite the harsh criticism he received from Mighty Number 9.
Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 is being released for the Switch on July 28th, 2022, as a digital-only release.
If you want a physical copy of the game, you’ll have to scoop up the Limited Run Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 edition. Which has sadly been sold out for quite some time, and there’s no word if they’ll be back in stock.
