Don't move, you can really get hurt

One bit of criticism I have for Evo 2022 is just how late it's allowing these tournaments to go. Day 2 went on for so long that it technically ended on Day 3. With another post-midnight finish in the works for the final day of the show, the folks at Arc System Works gave everyone a break by bringing their big announcement for Guilty Gear Strive to the Evo stage before the Top 8 tournament started. And what an announcement it was. Not only is Bridget coming to the game as part of Guilty Gear Strive's second season of DLC, but he'll be playable starting tomorrow, August 8.

Armed with his yo-yo and mechanized teddy, Bridget first made his debut in Guilty Gear X2 and has been a fan favorite ever since. A poll conducted by Arc System Works in 2013 named him the most popular character in the franchise. So it was only a matter of time before he made his way to Strive.
With the reveal of Bridget, Arc System Works also reminded fans of its roadmap for the second season of DLC. A second fighter is scheduled to release this year as part of the season pass with the third and fourth characters hitting in 2023 alongside two new battle stages. New characters are always great, but I love when developers make sure to include new arenas as part of DLC season passes.
In addition to the big Bridget news, it was also revealed that Guilty Gear Strive has sold one million copies.
