PlayStation and Aksys Games Release Character Primer for Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR-

Ahead of the game’s release on the 7th of June in North America, the publisher for Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR- has partnered with PlayStation to release a short character primer to get everyone up to speed on the two brand new fighters that are being introduced in the updated version of the game. This primer includes a loose breakdown of Raven’s mid-range, normal-heavy style and Kum Haehyun’s link-based approach to combos. Both characters will be available on the PlayStation Store for free between the 7th and 21st of June, so make sure to download them both before the deal ends.

Do note that Raven can actually be purchased via the in-game currency system, very similar to Sin Kiske from the original Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN- while Kum Haehyun can be bought from the PlayStation Store after the initial 7th-21st June window of him being free. Along with the two new characters, you can also download the Eclipse color pack from PSN from the 7th to the 21st, giving all characters a new color set based on a solar eclipse. Again, like with Raven and Kum Haehyun, you will be able to purchase this palette set after the initial free period.

If you’ve yet to see Raven and Kum Haehyun in action, be sure to check out this footage from MBA GAMING.
