Publisher Cygames and developer Arc System Works have announced Granblue Fantasy: Versus DLC character Vira, the latest post-launch fighter in the game.

The new Granblue Fantasy: Versus DLC character Vira is launching for the game sometime in December of this year.

Here’s a brief synopsis of the character:

Raised in the fortress city of Albion Citadel, Vira grew up alongside Katalina, whom she loved as a sister and worshiped as an idol. Following in Katalina’s footsteps, Vira quickly rose through the ranks as a prodigious blademaster and an astute tactician. Adoration, however, warped into deadly obsession when Katalina purposely lost to Vira in a duel for the title of Lord Commander, and the younger woman was left stranded in Albion while the person she adored most sailed into the endless blue sky.

Here’s a new trailer for the character:
