Project Lumina shared a new Melty Blood: Type Lumina Noel vs. Ciel trailer, showing off the first post-launch DLC character.

Here’s a rundown on the recently announced character, who is launching sometime this winter:

Dead Apostle Noel unleashes her spears (bells) to counter Ciel’s Black Keys as they rain down. As they enter a standoff, Dead Apostle Noel activates “Skewered Pork” and then her “Dazzling Echo” set technique to stop Ciel in her tracks!

Ciel: Battle Style

A well-balanced fighter with many different skills for different situations and opponents, able to move freely across the stage with a huge variety of attacks.
