The Samurai Outriders have turned out to be a gathering of dark heroes.
Because they are overflowing with intense individuality, the team is completely disconnected and disorganized right after its formation, but how will they grow together?
Let's look forward to the in-game Episode Mode.

New playable character Blade joins the fight!

PlayStation.Blog

The vampire hunter who possesses the traits of both vampires and humans, Blade, is confirmed to join the fray!
He fights against evil vampires to avenge his mother, who was murdered by a vampire.

In terms of fighting game character performance, he excels at an aggressive fighting style, wielding a variety of weapons including his beloved sword Muramasa, a machine gun, and a glaive.

His most noteworthy move is Heartstopper, where he throws a stake.
When this hits, it restrains the opponent, and Blade closes the distance at ultra-high speed.
Furthermore, when Heartstopper connects, Muramasa glows red, enhancing the performance of skills that use the sword.
The way he closes in on the opponent in the blink of an eye to deliver a powerful strike with his sword makes him truly worthy of being called a hunter.

Providing the voice for the Japanese version is Junichi Suwabe (MY_MURMUR).
Suwabe, who handles the Japanese dubbing for Blade in the "Marvel Cinematic Universe" works, is in charge for this title as well.

New playable character Loki joins the fight!

The adoptive brother of Thor, God of Thunder, known as the God of Lies and God of Mischief, Loki is also confirmed to join the fray!
While Loki has a strong impression as a villain, he is turning over a new leaf in this title and trying to start walking the path of a hero.
...Can we really trust him?

In terms of fighting game character performance, his combat style excels at deceiving opponents.
He fights by sneaking feints and counteractions using his own illusions into many of his skills.

Skillfully weaving together projectile attacks using ice or magic, strikes from his true body, and tricky movements, he launches a fight that constantly confuses the enemy.
While he can unleash annoying attacks befitting the God of Mischief, he can also receive a painful punishment if he gets found out...
He is a complex character who catches opponents off guard.

New playable character Deadpool joins the fight!

Hey!! Who was that?! The one who just tried to rage quit!!!

Listen up, fighting gamers!! Rage quitting is the one thing that can never be forgiven!!!

The man loved by every fighting game, "Yours Truly," is here!!!

MARVEL's ultimate unconventional, wildly irresponsible hero, Deadpool, is also making his grand entry into the game!
Even in the promotional video, he pulled off doing whatever he wanted in a way only he can, such as suddenly dropping meta-commentary.

In terms of fighting game character performance, he is a unique character who casually pulls off reckless things that defy common sense.
In addition to shooting with guns and grenades, and slashing with swords, he also possesses highly technical moves, including attacks unleashed while taking damage himself.
Furthermore, Deadpool in this title has acquired numerous attacks that look as if they jumped straight out of legendary fighting games, thanks to obtaining a strategy guide magazine from beyond the fourth wall...

He does whatever he wants during matches, such as striking the once-trendy jackochallenge pose or using a move that closely resembles Roman Cancel, a familiar mechanic to GUILTY GEAR series players.
This is a character that looks incredibly fun and exciting just to move around.

Providing the voice for the Japanese version is Takehito Koyasu.
Koyasu, who also voices Deadpool in the anime "Marvel Disk Wars: The Avengers," will surely deliver another wonderfully eccentric performance in this title as well.

Open Beta to be held in July!

It has been confirmed that a worldwide Open Beta will be held for PlayStation 5 and PC from Friday, July 24, to Monday, July 27, 2026!
