7th Shantae Game Now In Development

Wayforward has confirmed that a new installment in the Shantae series is now in development.

This new game will be the seventh entry in the series, and was confirmed to be in the works by  WayForward chief corporate officer Matt Bozon during the Limited Run Games 3 2025 broadcast:

“Today I get to share some very exciting news, and that is that we’re currently hard at work on a brand-new, seventh entry in the Shantae series. We won’t have anything to share in a while, but we hope you’ll look forward to it.”

This announcement was accompanied by new designs for Shantae and her rival Risky Boots, which will presumably be how they will appear in the new title. Stay tuned for more updates as they come.
