It was previously announced that Guilty Gear Strive’s next DLC character would be slightly delayed until April, but we didn’t know their identity until tonight.
Arc System Works Revealed Following Arc World Tour 2022 Finals Batman? (aka Delilah) will be the 3rd DLC character to join the second season of the game.
Delilah, from Strive’s Another Story expansion, joins the roster from the Guilty Gear XRD series, using her brother’s broken bedframe to do most of the fighting for herself.
Unlike the original Batman, Delilah isn’t bound by irony and can move around on her own, even as she fights alongside a machine that has seen its best days.
We see some familiar moves like the head toss and top spin options, but it looks like she’ll fight a bit more straight compared to her brother.
Batman? As part of the Season Pass 2 for Strive, the new Stage Fairies are scheduled to release on April 6, 2023, along with the Forest Factory.
At the end of the trailer, ArcSys added a brief teaser for the next DLC character coming to Strive in May, and Asuka R. It looks like it’s time to see Cruz in action.
Fans have been waiting to see what Asuka (aka the man) is capable of as a fighting game character for over 20 years, and given her role in the story we’ve had to wait longer to get her than we originally thought. Looks like Master Magician is just a few months away.
To round out the night’s announcements, the developers also announced that they are already working on Season 3 for Guilty Gear Strive, so support for the game will continue until at least 2024.
