Unlike previous seasons which kept their characters a surprise right up until they were about to launch, we now know that season four will include returning characters Dizzy and Venom as well as new characters Unika and Lucy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"GUILTY GEAR -STRIVE- Season4 Teaser Trailer\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wKWSBwkCUe0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Guilty Gear veterans are no strangers to Dizzy and Venom \u2013 both of whom first appeared in 2000\u2019s Guilty Gear X. Dizzy is a half-human\/ Gear hybrid who likes to harass her opponents from a distance with her shapeshifting wings, Necro and Undine. Venom, while human, is part of the Assassin\u2019s Guild and uses his iconic pool cue weapon alongside a variety of billiard-based attacks. Dizzy will arrive in Guilty Gear Strive in October 2024, while Venom will follow sometime in early 2025.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"[ GUILTY GEAR STRIVE: DUAL RULERS ] Teaser Trailer\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/e4TDqaE3XAg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Very little is known about newcomer Unika. Set to appear in the upcoming Guilty Gear Strive Dual Rulers anime, Unika is a human who has dedicated her life to eradicating all Gears. Based on what was shown in the anime trailer, Unika will cross paths with series mainstays Sin Kiske and Sol Badguy \u2013 the former being of quarter-human\/ Gear descent while the latter is a Gear himself. Unika will be added to Guilty Gear Strive in Spring 2025.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240722-34435-001.jpg\" alt=\"Guilty Gear Strive Season 4 Cyberpunk Edgerunners Lucy\" class=\"wp-image-34440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240722-34435-001.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240722-34435-001-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240722-34435-001-768x432.jpg 768w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The final character, Lucy, might be familiar to fans of Cyberpunk 2077. The first guest character in Guilty Gear Strive, Lucyna Kushinada hails from Studio Trigger\u2019s Cyberpunk Edgerunners anime series as a netrunner who is part of Maine\u2019s crew. In the anime, Lucy uses 2 Monowires that come out of her Cyberarms as well as a Unity pistol to fight off threats. However, her real strength lies in her netrunning capabilities as she can hack into a variety of things. Lucy will drop into Guilty Gear Strive in Summer 2025.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the four new fighters, Guilty Gear Strive\u2019s fourth season pass will include an exclusive color for all characters excluding Lucy, additional colors for the new characters, and two extra stages. This is on top of the upcoming Team of 3 mode that will pit two teams consisting of three characters against each other (the open beta version of which will be available on July 25). Considering Guilty Gear Strive is now three years old, those who have stuck with the game have a lot to look forward to in the coming year.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Guilty Gear Strive is available on <a href=\"https:\/\/store.playstation.com\/en-us\/product\/UP0036-PPSA02181_00-GGSTPS5US0000100\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">PS4\/PS5<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.xbox.com\/en-US\/games\/store\/guilty-gear-strive\/9MZDL6L34KF2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Xbox One, Xbox X|S<\/a> and PC (<a href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/app\/1384160\/GUILTY_GEAR_STRIVE\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Steam<\/a>).&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Guilty Gear Strive season 4 battle pass brings new playable characters, including Lucy from Cyberpunk Edgerunners, plus fresh stages.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":67,"featured_media":34439,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_gspb_post_css":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[17],"class_list":["post-34435","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-japan-related-news"],"blocksy_meta":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
