Guilty Gear Strive Adding Asuka R♯ As Final Character In Season Pass 2

Guilty Gear Strive, the anime fighter by Arc System Works and published in Asia by Bandai Namco, announced its fourth and final character for Season Pass 2: Asuka R♯.

Otherwise known as Asuka R. Kreutz, or for the longest time mostly referred to as “That Man” (the Fandom wiki calls him that still at the time of writing), Asuka R♯ is described as a “highly technical character” who wields 26 different spells. The scientist and magic bearer also wears a sick cape where the inner layer is just a peek into the cosmos.


Asuka R♯ completes the Season Pass 2 of DLC characters, which consists of, in release order: Bridget, Sin Kiske, and Bedman?.

(Don’t worry about the weird punctuations, this is a game that’s officially spelt as Guilty Gear -Strive- after all.)

Asuka R♯ will be accompanied by a new stage, Tír na nÓg. The character and stage will be released on May 25.

Alongside that, there will also be a release of two colour packs, one of them being free. The Guilty Gear Strive Guilty Gear 25th Anniversary Appreciation Colour pack adds a new colour for 24 characters- so that includes the 15 base game characters, 5 from Season Pass 1 and 4 from Season Pass 2.

Guilty Gear Strive is out now on PS4, PS5, PC (Steam, Microsoft Store), Xbox One Xbox Series X|S. It’s also currently available on Xbox Game Pass and PC Game Pass.
