Month: August 2015

In addition to introducing new characters and gameplay mechanics, Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR- includes another upgrade from its predecessor in the form of brand new character portraits. While they may look similar on the surface, each cast member’s official artwork has been given some extra polish, resulting in an updated look. Elphelt in particular has changed quite a bit in the transition, forgoing her usual pink and white color palette for darker shades and accessories that match her progression through the story.

Check out the full gallery below–SIGN images are on the left, REVELATOR on the right–and let us know what you think of these new portraits.

Enjoying a second year as part of the Capcom Pro Tour, the folks behind First Attack are bringing another fantastic fighting game tournament to the people of Puerto Rico next month.

First Attack 2015 is ready to pay out almost $5,000 in pot bonuses across a number of official titles, including Ultra Street Fighter IV, Mortal Kombat X, Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, Super Smash Bros. Melee, Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN-, Killer Instinct, and Tekken Tag Tournament 2. And with talent like Evil Geniuses’ PR Balrog, Infiltration, EX Pugera, Takumi of The Black Eye, and more in attendance, the locals will certainly have their hands full defending their turf.

The biggest news, however, is that Capcom will be bringing the latest build of Street Fighter V to the island for attendees to try out for themselves, complete with newcomers Necalli and Vega.

First Attack 2015 is scheduled for September 4-6. More details can be found by here.
