Shantae 7 exists, but it won’t happen for a while
Let’s call it Shantae 7 for the moment, although WayForward did not want to give a more precise title at the moment. During LRG3 2025, the latest showcase from distributor Limited Run Games (relayed by Gematsu), Matt Bozon, who serves as CCO of WarForward, made it official the development of a new game Shantaeabout which he could not say much at the moment :
“ I am pleased to announce excellent news to you today: we are working hard on a brand new opus, the seventh in the Shantae series. We won’t have anything to reveal for a while, but we hope you look forward to it. »
Words which suggest that the release of this seventh episode is still very far away, perhaps even beyond 2026. Which would not be surprising given that the series of platform games has just given birth to an episode this year, even if this one is a little special (it is still considered to be Shantae 6). We imagine that this new opus will undoubtedly be closer to the formula of Shantae and the Seven Sirensthat is to say with a less retro look, but to verify this, you will have to be patient.
