Lollipop Chainsaw remake: Developer addresses content/censorship concerns

destructoid.com:

Last week, fans got the surprising but welcome confirmation that cult classic Lollipop Chainsaw was to receive a full remake. As revealed by Dragami Games’ CEO Yoshimi Yasuda, the cheesecake 2012 adventure will be returning in 2023 sporting an updated look, a sparkly new engine, and all of the monster-mashing, zombie beheading action that makes the original release such a fun curiosity.

In a new statement, Yasuda has directly addressed fan concerns regarding potential changes being made to the new version of Lollipop Chainsaw. In particular, worries regarding the loss of some licensed music, increasing studio censorship, and clarifying previous comments that this new take on Juliet Starling’s escapades would feature a more “realistic” look, words that were severely misinterpreted.

“We have taken notice that there has been speculation that the remake will change the story,” writes Yasuda. “We believe that Lollipop Chainsaw‘s story is a huge part of what fans love about the original game, and we, the development staff, feel the same. As such, the story will not be changed in the remake. Additionally, we do not intend to change the aesthetics of the game.”

“The mention of how the game will have a more ‘realistic’ look in the previous announcement was meant to refer to how we will make use of the advanced rendering technology available in current game consoles. We do not wish to change Juliet’s design, and the assumption that we want to is baseless. We were the ones who created Juliet’s model data after great trial and error 10 years ago, and feel attached to her more than anyone else.”
