Arc System Works has announced Code Shifter, a 2D action game featuring a variety of well-known characters from the company’s many franchises, including ones from Guilty Gear, BlazBlue and the River City series. The storyline of the game concerns the members of a game development studio called Awesome Rainbow Corp, who are on the verge of launching their new title. When a large number of bugs of unknown origin threaten to sabotage their project, they deploy an anti-bug program called Code Shifter in an attempt to clean up the mess. This is where the player comes in, controlling Sera, the personification of the company’s anti-bug program, who happens to also be able to transform into beloved characters from Arc System Works franchises.
