SNK's "SAMURAI SPIRITS" made a big splash at EVO 2019.
Infiltration from South Korea took home the championship title. Congratulations! Kazunoko also had a great showing, finishing in second place.
At EVO 2019, new information about "SAMURAI SPIRITS" was announced one after another!
"HISAME SHIZUKAMARU" will be distributed for free!
The highly popular character "HISAME SHIZUMARU", who first appeared in "SAMURAI SHODOWN Zankoro Musouken", will be available for free! And it's free!
He is a boy with amnesia who fights with his umbrella "Kirisame" and his sword "Ooharaeno-Magakami-Shizumaru". In the past titles, his character was characterized by his narrow hit points and powerful attacks with many hits.
We are very happy to see the release of "SHIZUMARU" as he is a character of the editorial team's youth and we have been looking forward to his release.
"HISAME SHIZUMARU" will be available for free in September 2019!
"Rimururu" will be available for free in September 2019!
The first DLC character, "Rimururu", has been announced for delivery on Tuesday, August 6, 2019. That means tomorrow!
Along with the release of "Rimururu", a new stage "Kamuikotan Shimotsuki" will be added and a system update will be implemented.
Let's have a new battle in "Kamuikotan Shimotsuki" that fits the image of "Rimururu" who fights with the ice spirit "Konru"!
Rimuru" is included in the "SAMURAI SPIRITS Season Pass" (2,000 JPY + tax), and is also available as a standalone character.
We can't wait for tomorrow when they will be available!
Review the characters to be distributed by the end of the year
Let's review the additional characters that have been announced to be released by the end of 2019, starting with "Rimururu", which will be released tomorrow, Tuesday, August 6, 2019.
After the aforementioned "HISAME SHIZUMARU" who will be distributed free of charge in September 2019...
"Head Slasher Basara"
Scheduled to be distributed in October 2019. This character uses the "Togabito-Goroshi" weapon, a shuriken-like weapon with three blades and a chain attached, which first appeared in "SAMURAI SHODOWN Zankohiro Musouken."
She and her lover were slaughtered by Minazuki Zankuro, and she has been wandering around to seek revenge...
He is a very tricky character to control!
"Kazama Kazuki"
Scheduled to be delivered in November 2019. A flame-controlling Kazama-style ninja who first appeared in "SAMURAI SHODOWN Amakusa Descending."
His weapon is a ninja sword, so in past titles he had a short reach but was quite powerful in melee combat, but we can't wait to see what he will be like in this title.
"WAN-FU"
Scheduled for delivery in December 2019. A character from the first SAMURAI SHODOWN.
In the first game, he used the blue dragon sword "Zan-niku Dai Hocho", but in Shin SAMURAI SPIRITS he uses a large stone pillar "Boku-niku Dai Sekichu", and in Tenkaichi Kenkakuden he uses an iron ball with a handle "Bakuniku Daitetsu Ball". In Tenkaichi Kenkakuden, he uses a steel ball with a handle, the "Bakuniku Daitetsu Ball.
In this work, he fights with the "Boku-niku Dai Sekichu," the same weapon used in Shin SAMURAI SPIRITS.
These are the DLC characters included in the "SAMURAI SPIRITS Season Pass".
With new characters being added every month from now on, it's hard to decide which character to use! I scream with joy!
Season Pass 2 is in development!
The "SAMURAI SPIRITS Season Pass" has now released its characters, but this is not the end!
We have decided to develop "Season Pass 2" to be released in 2020! In addition, "Mina Majikina" will join the "Season Pass 2" as an additional character!
Mina Majikina is a character from "SAMURAI SHODOWN ZERO", and she is a demon destroyer who fights with a bow and arrow.
She is a relatively new character, but her popularity is so high that she was ranked first in a survey conducted by Dengeki Online on characters they would like to see added to the game.
In the past, his weapon of choice was the bow and arrow, and his main style of fighting was with flying weapons.
Let's wait for additional information!
A new trailer has also been released!
A video introducing the DLC characters that will be released by the end of the year, including the newly announced "HISAME SHIZUMARU" has also been released!
Seeing them in action makes me want to touch and feel them.
First of all, the first DLC character "Rimururu" will be released tomorrow, Tuesday, August 6, 2019! Just a few more hours to go!
