The popular fighting franchise, Guilty Gear X2 #Reload, makes it's debut on the Xbox this summer, courtesy of Majesco. Developed by ARC System Works, Guilty Gear X2 #Reload features Xbox Live support, offering players head-to-head competition, real-time global rankings, and community support of voice and friends.

"Our ability to identify select properties with an established audience and publish them at an attractive price-point is an advantage we hope to exploit, and Guilty Gear X2 #Reload certainly meets those criteria," said Ken Gold, vice president of Marketing for Majesco Sales Inc. "With hardcore 2D fighting enhanced by compelling multiplayer support via Xbox Live, we are excited to add Guilty Gear X2 #Reload to our product portfolio."

In Guilty Gear X2 #Reload, a newly discovered form of energy has been used to create devastating bio-weapons from fused human and animal DNA. Known as the Gears, they are now intelligent, self-aware creatures set loose upon the populace and threaten human control of the planet.
