Gameplay

History

Development

During development Gun Griffon was known as 3D Robot Shooting (3Dロボットシューティング).

Sega of America originally intended to release the US version of the game under a new title, Iron Rain'. Without naming names, Working Designs aludes in its manual of the localised PlayStation 2 sequel, Gungriffon Blaze, that it convinced Sega's Japanese arm to force the name back to Gungriffon so as not to confuse customers with Iron Storm (that and the new title "sucked really hard"). Working Designs were not involved in the Saturn version of Gungriffon, but had a strong working relationship with Game Arts at the time, seeing prototypes of the technology at Winter CES 1995.

Legacy

In Japan, the game was followed by Gungriffon II.
