Get a Taste of Real Soviet Voice Acting with Skullgirls Encore’s New Alternate Announcer

When the Skullgirls developers held their successful crowdfunding campaign, one of the stretch goals was an alternate announcer voiced by lead programmer Mike Zaimont, using his famous “Real Soviet Damage” persona from the official BlazBlue tutorial he took part in years back. Much like previous content, this voice pack was recently added to the game’s Endless Beta on Steam.

If you don’t have access to this version of the indie fighter, Skullheart forum moderator Cellsai recently compiled a voice reel with all the sayings Zaimont pumped out for this release. Check it out below and let us know what you think.

Leaked Tekken 7 Data Reveals Jin Kazama, Devil Jin, and Other New Characters

Tekken 7 data reveals that Jin Kazama, Devil Jin, and a couple of new characters may find their way to the newly-released fighter in the future.

At the end of Tekken 6, Jin supposedly died after a long and convoluted effort to rid the world of the Devil Gene. This left many fans with the question of whether or not Jin would make an appearance in Tekken 7.

According to Avoiding the Puddle, a group of fans in Korea have been able to gain access to character data from this week’s official Tekken 7 launch. The leaked information shows character models for not just Jin Kazama, but for his alter-ego, Devil Jin as well.

But it’s not just returning characters that have been revealed–the data also shows what seem to be not just one, but possibly two newcomers. The first of these is a female fighter wearing a short dress and the other, which may just be a skin for an existing character, is a red humanoid with all sorts of metal tubing stuck onto it.
