Get to Know Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR-‘s Kum Haehyun

One of the more interesting additions to the cast of Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR- is Kum Haehyun, as this seemingly muscular brute is actually a robot suit piloted by a girl.

To help players familiarize themselves with the character, Arc System Works recently released an introductory video that sees battle planner Pachi explain what makes Haehyun unique, such as the fact that she uses links instead of gatling chains, her controllable Choudengan projectile which can be controlled with the joystick, and more.

While Pachi’s narration itself is in Japanese, greatfernman has provided a translation that you can read here if the visuals aren’t enough.
