SNK has announced the latest DLC for the fighting game Samurai Showdown featuring Hibiki Takane will release April 28th.
Hibiki Takane is from The Last Blade 2. Daughter of a renowned swordsmith, she pursues the last man he made a sword for before falling ill and dying; a man who radiated evil. Hibiki fights with quick draws, slashing dashes, and counters to befuddle enemies.
