Get to grips with new gal Giovanna
Arc System Works has revealed the date for its nextGuilty Gear Striveopen beta. PS4 and PS5 fans can check out the newest action in Heaven and Hell on the weekend of February 18, while pre-order customers can jump into the battle a day earlier on February 17.
The new beta will feature a huge cast of 13 fighters, including new kids on the blockGiovannaandNagoriyuki, (though the recently revealedAnji Mitowill not be available). Playable modes include online and offline Vs., Training Mode, andGG Strive‘s in-depth tutorial, giving newcomers an opportunity to learn the basics of the admittedly tricky fist-trader. Online battles will be used to studyGG Strive‘s heralded rollback netcode.
Launching on April 9 for PS4, PS5, and PC,Guilty Gear Striveis the seventh mainline entry in the eccentric and hyper-stylized anime fighting series. Featuring a brand new engine, gorgeous visuals, and a redesigned ranking system, Arc System Works hope thatGG Strivewill bring a new army of players into the fold, while delivering the deep, breathless combat long-time fans have come to know and love.
Let’s Rock.
