Slayer flies into the fray as Guilty Gear Strive\u2019s final Season 3 DLC fighter Arc System WorksSlayer returns to the fray as Guilty Gear Strive\u2019s final Season 3 DLC character after an explosive announcement at EVO Japan 2024. The 2023 Arc World Tour Finals teased the final DLC character for Guilty Gear Strive Season 3 in a short teaser trailer, showing a brief look at the fighter\u2019s silhouette. Players speculated that it might be Slayer, the series\u2019 resident swanky vampire \u2014 and they were right. On April 29, Slayer was revealed as the last Season 3 DLC character for Guilty Gear Strive at EVO Japan in all his gentlemanly glory alongside his beloved wife, Sharon. The \u2018laid back vampire\u2019 is back with a new theme song, \u2018Ups and Downs,\u2019 along with a brand-new battle stage, \u2018Amber Fest with Kind Neighbors,\u2019 a quaint, wintry village with a train and northern lights. Slayer makes his grand return with an explosive moveset \u2014 including a charged-up punch that\u2019s so bombastic, it tears off most of his clothes \u2014 and he\u2019s no longer the only Nightless character in the game. With Nagoryuki also being a vampire, fans are anxious to see the two fighters\u2019 interactions when Slayer officially releases in May. Slayer will be available for purchase starting on May 30 for $6.99 and will be playable simultaneously for users who have already bought Season Pass 3 ($24.99) on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Steam, Xbox Game Pass, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Windows platforms. Slayer is the last character in Strive\u2019s Season 3 lineup, following the release of A.B.A. in March. But don\u2019t fret \u2014 Arc System Work\u2019s CEO, Minoru Kidooka, assured us that there\u2019s much more in store for the game after this. \u201cSeason three is in the wrapping up phase, but this is not going to be the end,\u201d he told me in an exclusive interview at the Arc World Tour Finals. \u201cWe will continue to support Guilty Gear going forward, and we want to push other titles as well and deliver all sorts of fun to our player base. We want to bring more surprises, so please look forward to it.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
