Welcome, warriors of the wastes! With less than a month to go until the June 7 launch of Guilty Gear Xrd Revelator, it’s time to take a close-up look at the new fighters and DLC options!
The world of Guilty Gear is loaded with fantastical fighters and insane warriors, all with their own unique agendas and motivations for fighting. If you’ve pre-ordered the game digitally on PS4 via PlayStation Store, you’ve no doubt been busy cracking skulls and solidifying your technique in the demo mode. While the full roster of characters is currently available in demo mode, two new characters will be available from June 7 to June 21 for free on PlayStation Store! These characters are Raven and Kum Haehyun.
Raven the “Undying Disease” is suitable for any style of play, but he excels as a technical mid-range character. Keep your enemies close (but not too close) and take advantage of his long reaching normal attacks.
Raven proves exceptionally difficult for fighters that have issues against zoners and he exploits this with a projectile that deals damage and slows down the opponent. Raven loves to take pain just as much as he loves to dish it out. Don’t believe me? Rattle off his “Give it to me here” move and see it for yourself. If you miss out on downloading Raven during launch for free, you can unlock him with free in-game currency at any time.
Kum Haehyun — AKA the “Turner of the World” — is a special kind of crazy. Looks like an old man, right? Wrong! Have you ever wanted to pilot your very own fighting mech that looked like a super-ripped, grizzled warrior of the apocalypse? Now you can! Kum Haehyun is the name of the girl who “pilots” the veteran looking warrior, a humanoid construct that delivers old style beat downs with a sensei like efficiency.
Haehyun is a power based fighter that’s built for maximum smash-imization (Yikes!) and does not utilize the gatling combo system. Haehyun’s hits deal massive damage and are ideal for link based combos. Her technical tools and power offer a very adaptable solution to virtually any combat situation. Haehyun will be available for purchase after the two-week launch window.
Lastly, you’ll have the ability to download the ultra-cool and impossibly stylish character color pack Eclipse Set for free from June 7 to June 21 as well. The Eclipse Set adds a new dimension of artistic awesomeness to your battles and will also be available for purchase after the two-week launch window.
Fans of fast paced fighters, get ready to revel in post-apocalyptic 2D glory. Guilty Gear Xrd Revelator and its free DLC launch on June 7 for both PS4 and PS3!
I’m so ready for this game. Haven’t played a Guilty Gear title since the PS2.
Wish there was a way to upgrade xrd sign to this. With kof 14 and tekken looming this is definitely not worth a full retail purchase.
But Guilty Gear is better than KOF and Tekken together D=… Well, I like it a lot more XD.
@ AliciaDarky – Lol…that was a good laugh.Better than KoF is already unlikely and then you say better than Tekken hahaha.I’m crackin’.
Well, Trendy, you’re in for a treat, lol. XD
@SuperJamaican:
Yeah, but ASW isn’t Capcom, and they really don’t do upgrades in the same way (IE digitally and such), its either get it ASAP or wait for a price you see fit to get it later.
But yeah, the wave of fighters coming into 2016 is a sure ride, lol. XD
@ Welmosca: Well, I’d personally find your tastes as disgusting, but I won’t say a thing nor laugh at them…
@AliciaDarky
I have to agree with SuperJamaican. I’m playing SF5 and MKX now, waiting for KoF 14 and Tekken 7, and I already have Xrd so its a hard sell to buy this game. Honestly BlazBlue is a better fighter.
@KazeEternal
Yeah, I like BlazBlue too. Don’t know if it’s “better”, but I certainly have enjoyed it more than Guilty Gear =/.
@Welmosca dunno which criteria would u use to compare them, but w/ Tekken bein’ a 3D fighter guess not much room to compare. and w/ KOF if it’s about graphics… u might want to take a second look, if it’s about animations, again, u might want to take a second look, if it’s about art style, game content… again, might want to take a second look. and if it’s about gameplay… at least at high level, the amount of options sorta make it so Guilty Gear kinda as high level as a 2D FG can get.
@KazeEternal guess at least at high level, to compare BlazBlue to Guilty Gear kinda same as to compare NCAA to NBA or so
@KazeEternal
Naw Guilty Gear is far more solid that BB. BB feels like GG’s not as cool cousin
@ AliciaDarky – Its funny to see you saying that but okay,and good for you cuz I don’t supress a laugh when I see something that’s worth laughing at.This ain’t about tastes either.
@ attks2 – It wasn’t really me comparing them…if you take a 2nd look lol.As I said I found very unlikely that Guilty Gear is better than KoF and I mean overall,never affirmed anything though.As for Tekken yup its a 3D fighting game but you can always compare them and yes here I affirmed there’s no way in hell that Guilty Gear could ever be better than Tekken in any way.
@Welmosca
I answered to you like that because you got in my nerves (again), but, if this isn’t about tastes, how can you say Tekken is better when you can’t compare them since one is on 3D and the other on 2D? Besides, you say that “there’s no way in hell that Guilty Gear could ever be better than Tekken in any way”. Wow, that’s taking it too far. I dislike many games, but that doesn’t mean I can’t see when they do something right.
Well, I think I’ll definitely delete you. Can’t stand your cynical, deceptive and conceited behaviour. I know you won’t care, but I’ll since I won’t have to put up with you again =D.
