Ultimax characters have finally arrived!

Last Saturday was a huge day for fans of BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle, as Arc System Works finally unveiled the final five characters that will be joining Senran Kagura Estival Versus’s Yumi, Akatsuki Blitzkampf’s Akatsuki and Blitztank, and RWBY’s Neo Politan this November in the game’s upcoming Version 2.0 update.

The company held two streams to show off this new quintet of fighters, with one in the new North American headquarters in California, which featured special guests James Chen and UYU|TheBeautifulDude, as well as their traditional Japanese stream, that has been customary for character reveals since pre-release.

The five new challengers who can’t escape from crossing fate are BlazBlue’s Celica A. Mercury and Susanoo, Persona 4 Arena’s Elizabeth, Tohru Adachi from Persona 4 Arena Ultimax, and Hilda from Under Night In-Birth. Additionally, Ragna teased the possibility of even more characters joining the ever-growing cast that now sits at 53 at the end of the trailer by asking who was next, something Ruby Rose also questioned before the reveals of Rachel Alucard, Hazama, and Weiss Schnee.

In addition to playing several matches and demonstrating how these fighters all compare to their past incarnations, we were also given a glimpse of the new character select screen, which features fighter’s having the color of their respective franchise behind them when highlighted, as well as their portraits being placed inside diamonds when selected.

It should be noted that Adachi remains on the end of the Persona 4 Arena column, with the logo changing to Persona 4 Arena Ultimax when he’s chosen. Additionally, Yumi, Akatsuki, and Blitztank have joined Heart Aino in the newly-added 5th tab that heralded her arrival back in May, which will now change colors and logos to reflect the series of the character you’re choosing, effectively making it a “Guest Character” column.

This not only potentially opens the door for other Ultimax characters, like Rise, Sho, Marie, and Margaret, to join the game in future updates, but also characters from the Akatsuki Blitzkampf sequel En-Ens Perfektewelt, such as Kati and the titular En-Eins, who were both in the massive datamine of announcer calls that also included the nine characters joining the game in Version 2.0, and perhaps even Londrekia from the newly-announced EXE:Late[cl-r] that was announced at Evo 2019 and will be arriving in early 2020.

The Versus/Order Select screen has also seen a sleek makeover, with character portraits being in larger boxes that are now on top of each other, rather than beside one another, similar to the Versus Screen of Marvel Vs. Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes. You can see the full trailer below, as well as both of the streams, which contain large amounts of footage of the newcomers, as well as matches between James Chen and UYU|TheBeautifulDude, who were the first American players to try out the characters.

A demo of the new update will be available this weekend at CEOtaku 2019 in Orlando, Florida, as well as at ARCREVO America

The official Japanese website has also been updated with screenshots of this new set of fighters in action, which you can also see in the gallery below.

Who are the remaining five New Challengers?!

Last month at Evo 2019, Arc System Works followed up their announcement of Under Night In-Brith EXE: Late[cl-r] with news that BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle will be receiving a massive update to Version 2.0 on November 21st. In addition to balance changes for the entire cast, the playable roster will be increased to a staggering 53 characters, with 9 additional warriors joining the fray, including at least three from two new franchises, meaning seven universes now can’t escape from crossing fate!

Newcomers include Yumi from Senran Kagura: Estival Versus, who will also be bringing a new stage with her, as well as Akatsuki and the massively-armed Blitztank from SUBTLE STYLE’s Akatsuki Blitzkampf, and RWBY’s Neo Politan, marking the fifth character for the American franchise, and the first outside of Team RWBY itself.

Despite Neo Politan taking on her Volume 3 appearance, to keep in line with the other four, she will have her character song from her return in Volume 6, One Thing, and also appears to have Roman Torchwick’s signature bowler hat in one of her Distortion Skills. This might close the book on his possible inclusion, despite his name being amongst the RWBY cast who’s announcer calls were datamined from Version 1.5 awhile back.

Five more newcomers, likely from BlazBlue, Persona 4 Arena, Under Night In-Birth, and Arcana Heart 3 will also be joining the fight in November, and will be revealed tonight, on a special ArcLive Livestream between 7:00-8:00 P.M. PST on Twitch, YouTube, and NicoNico.

#Blitztank has a message for you…#BBTAG #BBTANK

Saturday, 9/21 7PM PSThttps://t.co/9M2tu4EzOq

— Arc System Works @ #BBTank (@ArcSystemWorksU) September 21, 2019

The update will also be bringing four new gameplay mechanics to the title to drastically shake up BBTAG’s meta, which were recently covered in detail by Japanese website GAME MEDIA, and graciously translated and compiled into a Twitter thread by SUGOI|Ebonic Plague.

First up is Cross Raid: “After the final hit of Smart Combo 1 (5AAAA), you can consume your full Cross Gauge to switch your partner in with an attack. Active Switch power-up becomes active after this. This is utilized with Es and Yosuke Hanamura in the trailer.

Next is Extra Assault, used by Yumi and Akatsuki against Gordeau in the trailer. “Spend one bar of Skill Gauge to use a more powerful (two character) Clash Assault. According to the website, you are in Active Switch powered-up state after this as well. JUST LIKE CROSS RAID!”

Then comes the mechanic I’m personally most looking forward to, Delay Entry. “After a character has died, you can delay the incoming of your next character. You apparently do this by holding down “the” button and your character comes in on button release,” allowing you control over your incoming timing, which should lessen the power of incoming mixups, which are very strong in the current build.

Finally, perhaps the most surprising and controversial mechanical addition is Rampage Time. “When the timer hits 80 seconds, there is now passive Skill Gauge gain. Seriously, you just start passively gaining bar.” As I’m sure most players are aware, the BBTAG match timer starts at 180 seconds, three full minutes. With the speed and high damage output of the game, there generally aren’t any concerns with timeouts, so it will be interesting to see how often this new mechanic will come into play when it’s added in November.

There was also a bit of gameplay information shared about the four currently-revealed newcomers. Yumi will have access to her Aerial Rave mechanic from the Senran Kagura series, “which is described as a full air combo by itself and incredibly easy to do.” She also has two styles of dance that she uses (Light and Dark) that offer her “two different styles to make the opponent dance to her rhythm.” This might imply that she’ll be a Stance-based character. Hopefully, we’ll see tonight.

As for RWBY’S Neo Politan, she “can create after images to confuse the opponent on which one is real or not, similar to Hibiki Kohaku’s Drive, Double Chase, in BBCF, which fits in line with her fighting style form the series and her Semblance, Illusions.

Akatsuki is described as “an easy to use character with easy to use specials, like his projectile “Blitz Shot” and the rush skill “Armor Pierce Kick,” meaning his infamous B Tatsu will be in BBTAG. He will also have his Reflector parry, “Aggression Defense,” to catch opponents’ attacks.

Finally, with Blitztank it is simply mentioned that “overwhelming power is possible at all ranges, likely alluding to his status as a zoner in Akatsuki Blitzkampf. It will be interesting to see if he can overcome his status as the “worst character” in his origin series in this crossover title.

Additionally, the update will bring UI changes, more team-specific interactions for pairings that don’t currently have them, like Ragna The Bloodedge and Naoto Kurogane, as the five characters in Version 1.5 currently lack any unique dialogue. Each character will receive five new Colors, increasing the total up to 20 each. New Lobby Avatars and cosmetic items for the nine newcomers will also be available in the Kaka Shop. Rounding out the 2.0 upgrade is a new additional Extra Story Mode, likely featuring the 23 characters who were absent from the first four Episodes, and explaining how Senran Kagura and Akatsuki Blitzkampf joined the fight.

The 2.0 balance changes will be applied for free on Thursday, November 21st, but the Version 2.0 Expansion Pack will cost $24.99.

It was also recently announced that BBTAG 2.0 will be playable at CEOtaku 2019 taking place September 27th-29th, at the Wyndham Orlando Resort in Orlando, Florida, as well as the ARCREVO World Tour Finals at ARCREVO America 2019, November 16th and 17th at the UC Irvine Student Center in Irvine, California, just four days before the update releases worldwide.

I’m putting my money on BlazBlue’s Yuuki Terumi and Celica A. Mercury, Persona 4 Arena’s Elizabeth, either Hilda or Erika Wagner from Under Night In-Birth, and Saki Tsuzura from Arcana Heart 3, or Cinder Fall from RWBY, if they decide to give them a second character, making up the remaining five slots, but we’d love to hear your predictions, Story Mode ideas, and hopes for balance changes, in the comments below.

The spooky Union Graveyard stage is also available now!

We’re now mid-way through the month of September, which means many ghoulish boys and girls are casting their minds forward to Halloween and a fun-filled night of tricks, treats, and frights. To celebrate this occasion,  as they’ve done in 2017 and 2018, Capcom is once-again releasing a new batch of limited-time Haloween-themed content in the form of new Premium Costumes for New Challengers Poison and E. Honda, as well as the new Union Graveyard stage, a spooky variant of the existing Union Station, just as the Spooky Arena is for the Underground Arena.

Poison transforms into a gothic, punk, zombie, with a stitched-together leg, and plenty of whips, netting, and leather. Meanwhile, E. Honda takes inspiration from the Kappa river imps of Japanese folklore. These fabled yokai river monsters are normally depicted as green humanoid-like beings with a turtle-like carapace on their backs along with webbed hands and claw-covered feet. Coincidently, they also love to engage in sumo wrestling, making this attire a perfect fit for Edmond, as he tries to spread the word of his craft around the globe. He also has a dish on his head. Wonder if water will spill out once he’s K.O.ed in battle?

What happens when you build a train station on top of a crypt? The answer is another great place to fight as the Union Station stage morphs into the Union Graveyard!

E. Honda & Poison join the Halloween fun with their kappa & zombie costumes. All available from Sept 17th! pic.twitter.com/xHiFj9Dfdw

— Street Fighter (@StreetFighter) September 9, 2019

The two costumes can be purchased for $3.99 each, while the Union Graveyard will set you back $1.99 or 40,000 Fight Money. Balrog’s new “No Mercy” costume is also now available, which sees the disgraced boxer discard his traditional coat and trademark blue shirt to battle topless, with just his gloves, shorts, and boots. This attire is available in Menat’s Fighting Chance, replacing M. Bison’s “Psycho Miasma” outfit.

Balrog may’ve been banned from professional boxing, but he still looks ring ready with the gloves, shorts & boots that make up his all-new No Escape costume.

Finally, as Cody’s Vergil Crossover Costume campaign has passed the halfway point, now on its third week, Capcom has decided to unveil the next outfit in line. Kage will be the first Season 4 character to enjoy some crossover love, as he truly embraces his anger, donning the attire of Asura the Destructor from 2012’s Asura’s Wrath. As always, you will have to vanquish an increasingly difficult CPU version of Kage in the Asura costume to collect Gems once per week for a month straight.

Once you gather all four, you’ll be given the Costume. Each attempt will cost you 2,500 Fight Money, meaning you need a minimum 10,000 FM if you want to truly unleash your rage and anger. Hopefully, he’ll also have some Crossover BGM to go with it.

Fighting a 12,000-year-old demigod can be a huge time commitment. Just ask Akuma. That’s why Kage has opted for an Asura costume rather than an angry challenge.

The campaign will begin on September 27th and run through October 25th. As an aside, Falke’s Katt, Sagat’s Shade, Menat’s Devilotte, Alex’s Leo, and Zeku’s Kenji campaigns are currently re-running if you missed a week during their first rotation.

We’ve also included Asura’s DLC battles with Ryu, Evil Ryu, Akuma, and Oni from the Lost Episodes of his original game as a bit of nostalgia.

Rooflemonger breaks down some of the quality-of-life changes in the latest patch!

Hot off the heels of Evo 2019, the latest Season 2 DLC character, Janmeba, is became available in Dragon Ball FighterZ, along with the Version 1.18 patch. In addition to the long-awaited arrival of the Incarnation of Evil from the Fusion Reborn film, this latest update brings some improvements to Z-Trophy Rooms, Party Match, the FighterZ Cup, and Battle History.

Replay data from previous patches has obviously gone extinct, as usual, and there is a new series of Seasonal Z-Capsules available in the Shop to celebrate the season of Summer, giving us new Lobby Avatars, Z-Stamps, Stickers, and Color 16s to spend our hard-earned Zeni on, which deck out each of the Z-Fighters and Villians in a mixture of blue and red that can make some characters like Freiza and Cooler, look like walking blueberries.

You can catch a visual breakdown of all the patch changes below courtesy of Rooflemonger.

Janemba can be purchased individually for $4.99 or as part of the FighterZ Pass 2 for $24.99, which includes the already-released Jiren, Videl, GT Goku, and the upcoming SSGSS Gogeta and Dragon Ball Super version of Broly.

Speaking of the upcoming Gogeta, we got an in-depth look at the character from this weekend’s Tokyo Game Show 2019 along with a release date for the highly anticipated fighter! Check out the gameplay from the stream below and visualize all the epic combos you can create with the fusion fighter’s toolkit. Gogeta will arrive to Dragon Ball FighterZ on September 26!

Season 2 was also announced, featuring Haohmaru from Samurai Shodown!

Last month at Evo 2019, Bandai Namco Entertainment and SoulCalibur VI Producer Motohiro Okubo, finally revealed the final DLC character for the game’s first Season Pass, the Warring Maiden, Cassandra Alexandra, who is finally joining her sister Sophitia on the Stage of History.

In addition to her arrival, the game was also updated to Version 1.50, which saw some minor balance changes and behavioral adjustments for Azwel, Mitsurugi, Seong Mi-Na, Taki, Maxi, Voldo, Sophitia, Siegfried, Ivy, Kilik, Xianghua, Yoshimitsu, Nightmare, Astaroth, Cervantes, Raphael, Talim, Tira, Zasalamel, Grøh, Geralt of Rivia, 2B, and Amy.

A new stage was also added that is exclusive to Cassandra’s Soul Chronicle, as well as improvements to Training Mode, Network functions, Character Select, and Character Creation modes.

Most notably, we now have the option to turn off the ability to see an option’s Custom characters in Ranked and Casual Matches, so no more being forced to look at inappropriate Lizardmen or other various distracting forms of Customization during online battles.

Additionally, Patch 1.51 was announced earlier today, which will see some balance adjustments made to Cassandra to address various unintentional behaviors and properties on a variety of her moves, as well as a slight reduction in tracking for Azwel’s No More Naysayer attack, as the previous improvement made to its tracking last month in Version 1.50 made it occasionally and unintentionally unavoidable by sideways-moving opponents.

Finally, it was announced to much joy and fanfare from the arena crowd that SoulCalibur VI will be seeing a Season 2 of additional content, which will include what appear to be new mechanics, balance changes, new attacks for certain fighters, and most importantly, four new characters will be added to the roster, with each also bringing Character Creation parts with them.

It seems now it’s time for the Souls of the Stage of History to….embrace death!? SNK’s Haohmaru, the protagonist of Samurai Shodown will be making the jump into the 3D plane, not unlike Street Fighter’s Akuma and King Of Fighters’s Geese Howard have successfully done with Tekken 7, as the second character in the Season 2 Character Pass, as he’ll now finally be able to cross blades with the likes of Mitsurugi, Geralt, Yoshimitsu, Siegfried, Raphael, Nightmare, and more in the 16th Century.

You can the full patch notes for both updates, as well as trailers for Cassandra and Season 2, below.

SOULCALIBUR VI – Update Ver. 1.51

3 September 2019
Game System Adjustments
We fixed unexpected issues that may affect battles in Update Ver. 1.50 Patch Notes, released on August 5th, 2019.
(Please note that once the patch is applied, the replay data from previous versions can no longer be replayed due to the game system adjustment)

Some attacks that give chip damage to guarding opponents
We fixed an issue where, despite the fact that chip damage cannot knock-out opponents even when their HP gauge is reduced to zero, this was not the case for Cassandra’s “Keraunos Finisher” or “Shield Big Bang”.

Force Act
Cassandra can now only restore the guard stamina by performing Force Act during battles.

Cassandra: “Admonishing Angel”
As its tracking performance when hitting an opponent in the air was much higher than expected, sometimes the opponent could not avoid the attack by aerial control. Therefore, the tracking performance in this scenario and also the height the opponent flies in the air with the second attack are now decreased.

Cassandra: “Angel Kick-off”
We fixed an issue where an opponent rolling on the ground in downed position sometimes fell off the stage when hit by this attack.

Cassandra: “Guardian’s Knee”/”Seraphim Cyclone”
We fixed an issue where these throws were sometimes successful to opponents in the air instead of crouching opponents.

Cassandra: “Shield Super Nova”/”Shield Big Bang”
We fixed an issue where an attack to Cassandra when she is starting up these attacks were not judged as counter attacks.

Azwel: “No More Naysayer”
As its tracking performance was increased in Ver.1.50 update, sometimes an opponent could not avoid the attack by moving sideway. Therefore, the tracking performance is now decreased.Let us know if your souls still burn in the Comments section, as well as the other three characters you’d like to see in Season 2 of SCVI! Cassandara can be purchased standalone for $5.99, or as part of the SoulCalibur VI Season Pass, which also includes Tira, 2B, Amy, and Character Creation Sets A and B for $29.99.

Get Ready For The Next Battle and the arrival of Zafina!

At Evo 2019, Tekken 7 Producer Katsuhiro Harada and Director Michael Murray revealed that the King of Iron Fist Tournament 7 isn’t slowing down anytime soon, by announcing Season 3 for the blockbuster 3D fighter. This update will include balance changes and new moves for the entire roster, as well as four new characters, a stage and a new game feature set to be released between September 2019 and spring 2020, as part of a third Season Pass.

The Season 3 patch and Zafina will be dropping this Tuesday, September 10th, just in time for the next Challenger Event in the Americas, Kumite In Texas 2019, which will follow the final event to use Season 2, Cape Town Showdown 2019, a Challenger Event in Cape Town, South Africa.

The game will also see cosmetic changes, in the form of a new main menu, recolored life bars, which will abandon the current blue and purple for yellow and green (making them look like a pack of Gummy Life Savers candy), the Preset Costume Slots have been expanded to eight per character, and there is also a new Play Stats feature.

The Play Stats feature logs and displays personal playing stats, such as Combo Usage, Tenacity, Aggressiveness, Combo Damage, Defensive Ability, Side Stepping, Throw Countering, Punishment Proficiency, Agility, Rage Usage, each of which is assigned a letter grade, with your top three stats being displayed on the Versus screen during online matches. You can also track your PERFECT Win Rate, GREAT Win Rate, Final Round Win Rate, Premotion/Demotion Match Win Rate, Side Selection Rates, and your Round Average for PUNISH Combo Damage and Counter Combo Damage. You can even view your win percentages on each of the game’s 26 current stages.

There will also be a series of exclusive Customization items for those who decide to purchase the Season Pass 3, including a Plushie Set, the Season Pass 3 Effects Set, the Season Pass 3 Player Customization Set, a Hairstyle Set, the Iron Fist Aura Set, and the Glasses Set.

In Winter 2019, New Challenger Leroy Smith will join the fray. A master of Wing Chun from the United States, he lost his family and home in New York as a child during a large-scale gang conflict 50 years ago. After being declared missing for decades, he has returned to New York on a quest for revenge. You can see the full patch notes below, as well as both the announcement and launch trailers for Season 3. Give us your thoughts on the balance changes in the comments below, as well as who you’d like to see in the remaining two character slots.

Plus obtain new Crossover BGM from Devil May Cry 4!

The end of another week means another set of new Extra Battles to conquer in Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition. With Ibuki’s Akane Yagyu Crossover Costume finally finishing up last week, as well as the second runs of Air Man Rashid and Guts Man Balrog, it’s time for a new Crososver Costume to become avaialble as we head into September.

This time new Metro City Mayor Cody Travers is the lucky recipient of new attire, that sees him put away his steel pipe, suit, and tie, to don the signature blue coat and boots of Devil May Cry’s power-hungry Son of Sparda, Vergil, joining Dante Ken, Ed Nero, and Gloria Laura, as the 4th Crossover Costume from DMC. As always, you’ll need to defeat an A.I.-controlled Vergil Cody once a week over the course of the next month to obtain four Gems that, when fully assembled, will unlock the Crossover Costume for your own personal use. Each attempt will cost you 2,500 Fight Money, meaning you’ll need a minimum of 10,000 FM to claim the costume. The difficulty will also increase each week, going from Easy to Very Hard, as the CPU will put up a stronger fight each week as you obtain more pieces.

“Foolishness, Guy. Foolishness. You can’t become mayor wearing trainers…”
The time has come… for Cody to don this Vergil costume and make his opponents cry in #SFVAE. Get Cody’s Vergil costume and Vergil, Dante and Nero battle music in Extra Battle mode now through Sept 27th. pic.twitter.com/FgE18Rvhss

There are also two new pieces of Crossover BGM available, “Let’s Just See,” Vergil’s Battle Theme from Devil May Cry 4: Special Edition, and the Blackened Angel Mix of “Lock and Load,” Dante’s Battle Theme. Though it is currently unavailable to challenge for at the time of this writing, there is a space in the DLC BGM list for “The Time Has Come,” Nero’s Battle Theme, which will likely involve a battle against Nero Ed, as the other two themes require you to topple Vergil Cody and Ken Dante on Hard difficulty to obtain, at 1,000 FM per attempt.

We also have another chance to grab a Fortune Ticket for Menat’s Fighting Chance against Normal difficulty  M. Bison in his Psycho Miasma costume, which harkens back to his look from the Street Fighter Alpha days, complete with his signature cape, on the Field of Fate, for maximum nostalgia. As is customary, this will set you back 250 FM per attempt, and, as always, completing any of these four Extra Battles multiple times will provide you with 100 EXP for the character you cleared it with, so it might be worth it if you’ve got a World Warrior on the verge of leveling up, which will grant you 1,000 FM on the spot. Don’t forget that Psycho Misasma M. Bison is still available in Menat’s Fighting Chance until September 14th if you have yet to claim his outfit.

Interestingly enough, there are also currently-unused spots in the DLC BGM folder for 8-bit and Arranged versions of the Title Theme from Mega Man II. Perhaps this means we’ll be seeing a Proto Man Crossover Costume for either Ken or Sagat once Cody Vergil’s campaign concludes on September 27th? You can see the Street Fighter Twitter account’s official tweet about the event’s below.

Will you be seeking more power by going for this Cody Crossover Costume? Has this new attire inspired you to pick up Metro City’s Mayor? What other Crossover Costumes would you like to see in future SFV: AE Extra Battles? Tell us your picks in the comments section below.
