Fan-Favorite PS3 Action Game Getting New Projects
The PlayStation 3 is filled with cult classics that gamers still fondly remember to this day. One of these games is finally getting new projects 13 years after its original release.
New partnership to spawn 'multiple' Lollipop Chainsaw projects
Today, Nada Holdings and Dragami Games announced they have entered a partnership agreement that will result in the launch of multiple projects based on the cult classic PS3 action game Lollipop Chainsaw. In terms of what these projects are is still unknown, but it is stated that this partnership 'aims to further expand the franchise through multifaceted projects and cross-industry collaborations.
'Thirteen years ago, our original development team poured immense passion and creativity into creating Lollipop Chainsaw,' says Shohei Sato, President and CEO of Dragami Games. 'Since then, the game has continued to receive tremendous support and love from fans. We are deeply grateful for this, and it moves us profoundly. To further expand the title and meet the expectations of our fans, Dragami Games has made the important decision to move forward with a new phase of IP development for Lollipop Chainsaw.'
'As a huge fan of Lollipop Chainsaw, I am truly honored and delighted to be involved in the expansion of this IP,' says Joe Teng, Chairman of Nada Holdings. 'Moving forward, Nada Holdings will devote itself wholeheartedly to preserving the spirit of the original work and meeting the expectations of its fans. Together with Dragami Games, we are committed to developing a wide range of new projects.'
Although a new entry based on Lollipop Chainsaw has yet to see the light of day, that doesn't mean the game has been dormant since its 2012 release. In 2024, Dragami Games released a remaster of the game, titled Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP for PS5.
While it wasn't the most lauded PS3 action game, it garnered a cult following, partially thanks to Suda51 and James Gunn's involvement with the game.
