Arc System Works has announced the next DLC fighter coming with Guilty Gear: Strive Season 3, as well as a new update.
The new character, the first to come with the game’s Season 3, is none other than fan-favorite Johnny. Both Johnny and a free update will launch on August 24th as a start of the new season.
Here’s a rundown on the returning character, plus a new trailer:
Severs all with an unseen strike. Natural-born gambler.
Leader of the Jellyfish Pirates. He is a master of the Hirofumi Style of swordsmanship. He’s a world-class outlaw but lives by the mantra, “Help the weak and sprain the strong,” which has made him popular among the masses.
Johnny is an easy-going guy who’s always ready to kick back, but when the going gets tough, he’s undoubtedly the man for the job. No matter how grim the situation, he never loses his cool and is often there to break the tension with a clever joke. He rescues children orphaned from war (women only) and brings them aboard his ship. He loves the members of the Jellyfish Pirates like his own family and has often told them he puts their safety before his own life.
Guilty Gear: Strive has been available on Windows PC (via Steam), Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5.
