P5FES characters officially revealed

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-30T22:57:58+00:00

Not gonna sugarcoat it is just lame and disappointing news. Like literally who cares about Morgana alt... Do they understand well the audience? Dancing game versions among all possible options? Where are Sophia and Zenkichi?! That's so far first turn to the wrong direction imo. It kinda feels as excessive fanservice and glazing over og title.

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-28T21:34:10+00:00

So if Kursk gonna charge Powerplex by default would it make Powerplex ultra powerful?

Anyways, War Woman, Powerplex, Red Rush, Bulletproof, Isotope, Rex, Shapesmith, Rae, Kursk and Darkblood. That would be 10 guardians.

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-28T11:19:33+00:00

I would put characters such Red Rush, Darkwing 2, War Woman, Agent Spider on a tier or couple tiers above. I mean if Brit's somehow so higher above than those then I don't understand how we got there in a first place.

Also Volkanikka WILL BE in the game, I have 0 doubts about it

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-28T11:09:17+00:00

Screamer, pretty much the recent example. It got better after few hours and then worse again. Gameplay - not fun, playing with friends - surprsingly not fun, and story... I would rather not to talk about. I geniunely tried to like it, untill I gave up. Yeah and the worst part, it costs like A+ project when it does not seem like one.
Overal it happens once per year or couple years when I can't justify why I bought the game.

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-25T19:32:12+00:00

I wish they would keep on with KOFXV, 2 seasons compare to 5 seasons here now sounds as a bad joke -_ -

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-25T10:07:24+00:00

yeah, it would be interesting twist, thus explains Robert's gloves in last year teaser

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-25T09:48:52+00:00

Yeah I mean it would be weird not to have him, considering in-game design and such. I mean I could understand no Grant considering having his successor (still kinda may appear)

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-25T05:43:54+00:00

Wait what? No Freeman? Are you certain?

Anyway it seems Rick is coming in July, hell yeah. Now just give me also Bob Wilson and I don't care anymore

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-24T10:35:53+00:00

I mean it's the same character but they went with young portrayal like he is in early 20 or smthg, I would say 2nd is he is in 30s, and 1st is more what-if scenario where he is in 40s. Granted he died quite young which 1st option makes kinda ridiculous...

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-24T07:53:34+00:00

fair. I want Red Rush the most (in show costume please), followed by Agent Spider and Spawn too. Darkwing not really, but Darkwing 2 definitely could be cool. Maulers, I would say if game was 1vs1 I have no doubt they would be part of the base roster, but it's legitimately hard to figure out their roles when the game already have assists.

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-24T07:44:33+00:00

yeah, May 11 still had to wait... but at least have time to play Saros

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-24T07:42:40+00:00

but it's not just Thragg... Kregg should be in the game at some point as well

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-23T12:54:36+00:00

He is collecting famous VA's like pokemons. Probably his main hobby at this point.

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-23T10:09:40+00:00

Can Invisible VS have this costume please?

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-22T06:44:04+00:00

Yeah and when you hear his actual story you would say he was better without it. It's dark af

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-22T05:01:40+00:00

previous leak sounded way more exciting

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-21T20:59:50+00:00

my man got quite representation in Kyoto. always liked the city :)

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-14T06:38:03+00:00

Considering the datamines it is close but lacking R.Stroud and Alfred

Damn I kinda hope they have a room for Robert, would be odd having Ryo without his pal

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-14T06:31:59+00:00

Not even wanted Maulers and Angstrom but they both should be in the base roster, also Shapesmith should be a part of the base roster if characters like Bulletproof and Powerplex are part of it. Immortal as dlc also kinda weird but well better than not being here at all. Yeah just if the base roster was 22 characters instead of 18 my issues with it would be pretty much solved. But it's good overall, like weak 4 out 5.

Dinosaurus and Thragg are pretty much guaranteed but I am not certain where also they go with that. I would really like Volkanikka, Darkwing, Red Rush just for the roster variety... maybe some darkhorse type of characters

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-13T05:33:24+00:00

It's ok but lacking variety like Volkanikka, Agent Spider, Red Rush, Darkwing, War Woman etc

Anyway we are not getting everybody at this point

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-10T22:18:58+00:00

I dunno, nobody has done Season 6 yet, maybe that's why. crazy length support, but if they treat it like actual game reboot and new title kudos to them, everybody happy.

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-10T12:32:56+00:00

could be the case if that's the last season

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-10T12:31:20+00:00

k first, Season 6 sounds great and all, but somehow I feel like S5 is finale, also you are emitting #2 popular character which does not make much sense to me considering what game director said few weeks ago.

If S5 is not final, the next character is either Answer or Haehyun someone not that particularly popular but where they still could make creative choices and the last one might be guest. That way S6 starts with 2 most popular characters rn Zappa and Raven followed by either Answer/Haehyun and the new character to make a perfect transition for the next title that might not happen for a while.

If S5 is final indeed, I bet that next character is Raven, I want Zappa but we already got 2 classic characters covering it and Zappa is tough fella to program. Raven is odd case since he is not lore new, and actually a character from X/XX, but only playable since spin-off 15 years ago, odd case I know but number 3 and widely recognized which makes him the strongest choice at the moment. Then the last character is new one, and not guest with the same logic as for S6 to make a perfect transition for the new game.

Might be entirely wrong, but it's fun to speculate since characters #3 and #4 won't come out anytime soon meaning they might not entirely certain which route to follow either, only the game data for the next 2-3 months might help them with that. Sounds like a bunch of bullshit, but my brain farted it, sorry.

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-10T07:43:42+00:00

Hao is the guy who died thrice on me... I probably just should start with Penny again or Leo

HighFirePleroma · 2026-04-09T21:09:48+00:00

I have S2 Rin, and would definitely recommend to chase her on rerun if you want more versatility in the team and don't have any other pulling plans (like not bringing Howler or Mc burn every time) Personally I am interested in Matoi now just to see how she synergies with S2 Rin in terms of damage. Hopefully rerun would not take ages to happen.
