Gal Guardians: Demon Purge (new 2D action platformer by Inti Creates) announced for Nintendo Switch

Ahead of BitSummit X-Roads (which takes place this weekend), Inti Creates have revealed their latest game: Gal Guardians: Demon Purge, a new 2D action platformer. It features characters from the Gal Gun series, but with gameplay closer to a Metroidvania. The game will be released on Nintendo Switch, but it doesn’t have a release date yet.

Here’s the reveal trailer:

And here’s some details:

Players take control of the two sisters with different attacks and capabilities to challenge the demon castle and the bosses waiting within. Discover new routes through the castle using the sisters’ unique abilities!

The stars of Gal Guardians are the long-distance focused “Shinobu Kamizono” and the close-range brawler “Maya Kamizono.” Players will need to consider the situation when choosing which sister to control as they make their way through the castle, investigating the mystery of what happened to their school and its students.

Other features include 2-player co-op with special actions, extensive difficulty options with the “Style System,” unique changes on repeat plays, and most importantly the quality and challenge players have come to expect from Inti Creates titles, this time with a new gothic horror aesthetic.

Finally, here’s the very first screenshots (and a couple of artworks) for the game:
