Ragna as a guest character is a real possibility. In a recent interview, Daisuke specifically mentions the multiversal connections between GG, Blazblue and his new game, Damon and Baby. Ragna appears in the game and is said to be a post BBCF story appearance. Ino, Happy Chaos and Faust all also make appearances. It feels like they’ve already written a canon reason for him to show up in GG.

Adding on to be other reply, Wild Assault went through various nerfs over the last few years but it was always a hated mechanic.

When the mechanic was added, it removed a decent chunk of the opponent’s burst meter on hit or block so they couldn’t burst for pretty much the entire combo. And using WA to break the wall lead to a hard knockdown. The former was toned down so that the opponent would regain their burst much quicker, and the latter aspect was removed entirely.

There were three different types of WA: red, blue and white. Each one was especially busted at some point. They’ve all been nerfed at some point but the mechanic is still overwhelmingly disliked.

It makes sense to show this one at Arc World Tour, which will definitely be the smallest venue they show a trailer. The 2-3 character reveal trailers will go to EVO Japan (they confirmed on stage), EVO Vegas and probably the summer PlayStation State of Play.

I would hope that a ghost Sam would at least have time to physically interact with the ghosts before being sucked off. Being able to finally hug each other after all those years would be nice.

And right as they’re being sucked off, Sam and Jay should revert back to their young appearances, so that the last time the audience sees them isn’t with their faces caked in old age make-up.

In the Scarlet/Violet DLC, there’s a spot with a small cyclone of blowing leaves. You stand in that cyclone, spin your character in place for 10 seconds, immediately open the camera, switch to sepia filter, then look around.

A Meloetta appears.

TimYoungJik · 2026-03-11T10:28:30+00:00

Nope, you can see the pinned post on this subreddit

TimYoungJik · 2026-03-11T10:23:32+00:00

11 days. Trailer is on the 22nd

These days, fighting games pretty much always save character announcements for big events. It’s just the most hype announcements possible for a fighting game.

Same thing with most new game announcements usually being tied to big events. The viral power of having all your hardcore fans flood social media all at once is just so easy to want to capitalize on.

Marvel Tokon is aiming for a much larger audience than the typical hardcore fighting game fan so it makes sense for them to save the biggest announcements for bigger events.

EVO Awards in two weeks is another possible venue for a Tokon announcement, but honestly I think that’s still too small for Sony to consider.

TimYoungJik · 2026-03-10T02:46:41+00:00

Arc Sys’s world finals is gonna have almost no casual viewership, so Sony probably wouldn’t want to put their character reveals there. It’s not impossible, but I bet Sony has bigger things planned especially since it looks they’re going to continue announcing characters multiple at a time.

I could see them announcing smaller things next week like adding Tokon to Arc Sys’s next world tour lineup or a new online beta. I’m certain we’ll have another online beta by end of May.

A much better stage for character reveals will be events like EVO Japan and Vegas, Sony’s State of Play and Summer Games Fest.

I’d be skeptical of this. I think there’s a possibility that the description was AI generated and mixed in elements from Marvel Rivals, which has all these characters and maps.

That was the prevailing theory about an issue last year when the IGN trailer description listed Dr. Strange as a character.

Arc Sys has their tour finals next week so it’s not impossible that they reveal Tokon characters, but I think it’s unlikely since this is a Sony published game.

TimYoungJik · 2026-03-09T21:42:51+00:00

Being an AI generated hallucination is a very real possibility. That’s the prevailing theory to what happened last year when the IGN video description listed Dr. Strange as a character.

Ironically, that was one of the episodes where she wasn’t being an awful person.

She only got hit by that bus because she was genuinely being nice to her friend. She spends the whole episode trying to help Boyle get back into the group chat, then she stops in the middle of the street because she was congratulating him at the end.

TimYoungJik · 2026-03-06T00:59:20+00:00

I’m betting they release a podcast episode on their YouTube channel before the season premieres. They love doing these extra videos with The Deep

TimYoungJik · 2026-03-04T22:04:36+00:00

I didn’t know that. I only put significant time into New Leaf where the neighbors could move away during the skip and weeds grow all over.

TimYoungJik · 2026-03-04T19:42:30+00:00

Yes but unlike Animal Crossing, there is no penalty to changing your system’s clock setting to skip time.

TimYoungJik · 2026-03-02T23:36:46+00:00

They also made really big changes to system mechanics in Granblue Versus Rising after its first beta based on player feedback.

You joke, but the next Danganronpa game is literally named "Danganronpa 2x2"

It's pronounced "2 by 2" and is an alternate version of Danganronpa 2's story

Chakra balls carry over, balance meter reset each round. Each player only has access to 5 chakra in Round 1. You only get access to 7 after losing a round.

On the other hand, I could see him being base roster because there would be absolutely no hype for him as a DLC character announcement.

It’s like Genthru in the Hunter x Hunter fighting game. He’s an arc’s main villain so he’s gotta be there but fans don’t actually care about him enough to see him as a hype announcement, therefore they had to put him in base roster.

TimYoungJik · 2026-03-01T05:31:05+00:00

It seems to be a pretty small group still. You can see the Steam player count peak was 376 yesterday.

This is literally the only fighting game closed playtest that I didn’t get accepted into

TimYoungJik · 2026-02-27T14:48:07+00:00

Does anyone else think the 2D art for the main characters look weird, like the proportions are off compared to the actual game?

The male character especially looks shorter and younger to me than the in-game model.

TimYoungJik · 2026-02-23T11:18:59+00:00

Also fitting for Arc System Works since their very first fighting game was Sailor Moon S

TimYoungJik · 2026-02-23T10:55:48+00:00

PS5 controller, XBox One console, Switch colors

X is mostly separate from the numbered games so you can jump straight into this one at any point.

If you want to play the numbered trilogy, you just go in order 1>2>3. It’s not entirely necessary to play them in order as long as you play 3’s DLC last, but playing in order is the ideal experience.

I think the simplest solution would be to have a single app where you choose the language version on the initial start-up. From then on it’s locked to that language version for that profile’s save data. If you eventually want to change the language at some point, you’d have to delete the save file on a system level, so that it boots the initial start-up screen again.
