Persona 4 The Ultimax Ultra Suplex Hold isn’t the only Arc System Works-developed title to have some great news in this week’s issue of Famitsu. Gematsu is reporting that Japanese gaming blog Sokhuo@Hokanko has revealed some choice information on the company’s upcoming console release of Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN-.

According to these reports, Xrd will include cross-play functionality between PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4, allowing fans on both consoles to play against one another. This is particularly advantageous for the next-generation system, as the install base is sure to be far less than that of its predecessor.

Furthermore, the version of the game heading to Sony’s latest platform will be receiving a bit of a visual upgrade and output at 1080p instead of the arcade and PlayStation 3’s 720p.

The console port of Xrd will also include at least one new character as well as a story mode that continues from where the arcade plot ended.

We’re sure to receive additional information as soon as Famitsu reaches more hands, so stay tuned.

Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN- is scheduled to release for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4 in North America sometime this fall.
