[many places]

Maybe this version will be ported to steam?

 

[YianGaruga]

Right before the original comes out in EU on PSN digital only and overpriced lol
Can't make this stuff up

 

[Phantasmal Repose]

Sweet. I hope they put Robo-Ky and Order-Sol in the game as well.

 

[Neoxon]

If this is a separate disc release, I'm glad I waited.

 

[wwm0nkey]

New character too?

 

[NEO0MJ]

Who cares about Johnny, where's Robo-Ky?

 

[desmax]

Maybe this version will be ported to steam?

hah

 

[Moonlight]

Fuck Johnny, when's Baiken. ;_;

 

[Squishy3]

I called it. Same day +R comes out on PC we get the new Xrd revision announced.

Please look forward to Guilty Gear Xrd on PC next year while consoles will already have this version.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

god is good

 

[Morgenstern]

Ah...Arc Systems being Arc Systems.

Normally, I would think that it's probably going to be console DLC, but considering their track record, it's probably going to be a separate release.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Haha! So many folks called this to happen. Love the predictability and the smart guessing here.

 

[Lucentto]

Praise be

 

[dragonlife]

Cool. Now, don't fuck it up, ArcSys. Don't give us vanilla Xrd when it comes out for PC!

 

[ZeroTheShadow]

Still waiting for Baiken.

 

[ArchedThunder]

I knew I shouldn't have bought Xrd, they probably aren't going to release this as DLC like they should.

 

[IronLich]

I was just lamenting the fact that Johnny is a Story Mode exclusive.

And then BAM! SECOND ENCORE!

 

[Ambition]

Maybe this version will be ported to steam?

Ahahahahahaha...
I wish ;_;

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Who is that?

 

[Astarte]

Yo is that mystery outline BRIDGET?

 

[K.Sabot]

PRAISE BE

 

[Rhapsody]

Wonder if the silhouette was Bridget.

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Where''s Jam and Baiken?

 

[Morgenstern]

Cynicism aside, who is that in background of the 7th screenshot?

 

[Onemic]

No. Fucking. Baiken.

Damn it Arcsys!

 

[Mr Fahrenheit]

God's Gift 2 Electric Boogaloo.

They put in Johnny like everyone guessed, so I hope Dizzy follows the same path since they already have the model for her and expressed the desire to put her in.

 

[Deleted member 57681]

Fucking JOHNNY before Baiken and Jam?!

 

[SolarPowered]

Where the fuck do they come up with these names? These guys lol...

Maybe this version will be ported to steam?

Don't get your hopes up for a steam release before 2017.

 

[DNAbro]

So waiting on an updated version of Xrd was a good idea?

 

[DiscoShark]

I don't regret buying Xrd, I'll just say that I'm glad I didnt bother dropping money on any of the DLC. Don't think I'll be picking up Replicator unless its distributed as DLC ala SF4 Ultra/AE

 

[Squishy3]

Don't get your hopes up for a steam release before 2017.

That's the latest we'll get Xrd, Revelator will be way after that.

Arcsys really needs to find better PC partners, or be willing to work with them to get games out quickly instead of way later. I don't even like Blazblue and that's two revisions behind on PC.

 

[lupinko]

So waiting on an updated version of Xrd was a good idea?

For the average person yes, for the person who wants to play it seriously? Nope.

 

[Baust]

I'm always up for more Guilty Gear!

Still hoping that Jam will be back at some point.

 

[Mr Fahrenheit]

So waiting on an updated version of Xrd was a good idea?

If you want to look at it like that you might as well just wait for the next revision after this one, or the next one after that, or the next one after that.

 

[TWILT]

Where's Dizzy and Jam >:

 

[Antiwhippy]

So waiting on an updated version of Xrd was a good idea?

Yep.

Need mah bridget though. Yoyo setups for life.

 

[SolarPowered]

They need to find any fucks to give in the first place before we even talk about finding PC partners.

 

[SolarKnight]

Well it IS that time of the year already I guess, they always do this around this dates :T

Fucking JOHNNY before Baiken and Jam?!

Johnny has a model already from being in the story mode while they don't so it's only logical. Same goes for Dizzy who I'm 99% sure will be added too.

It's a good start, but this should have started a while ago and it needs to be given enough resources.

 

[Ferrio]

Let that be an updated Bridget... please.

 

[K.Sabot]

I honestly thought this wouldn't get announced until late 2015 / early next year, but Johnny gonna straight up be playable next week.

 

[NEO0MJ]

New characters looks kinda busy with robot hands/gauntlets, Halo, and Iron Ball. Looks female but this is GG so you never know.

Yeah just the silhouette reminds me of GG2 style character design.

 

[Tizoc]

Mutha effin' Norio 'Johnny' Wakamoto has fucking returned

Also will the new character

I'm sorry but 'jailbait' is the first thing that came to me when I saw the sillhoute
...but what if
WHAT IF

Spoiler

THIS IS BRIDGET!

 

[Crocodile]

Who is that?

ITS PIKACHU!

 

[Riposte]

Johnny is no surprise if you've played, er, watched, the storyline.

Spoiler

Dizzy

is probably coming real soon too.

 

[ShockingAlberto]

Maybe this version will be ported to steam?

I'm sure it will be

after Xrd Sign

in 2018

 

[Naite]

I'll be pretty disappointed if they silhouette isn't some form of Bridget

 

[DNAbro]

For the average person yes, for the person who wants to play it seriously? Nope.

yeah i'm very casual when it comes to fighters.

If you want to look at it like that you might as well just wait for the next revision after this one, or the next one after that, or the next one after that.

maybe i'm misremembering but weren't blazblue updates like $40 and not $60?
