SNK released the Samurai Shodown Season 3 gameplay reveal trailer for The Last Blade 2 guest character, Hibiki Takane! She will be available on April 28th.

She looks great. Hibiki's transition to 3D was a smooth one.

In case you didn't knew: Samurai Shodown takes place in 18th century Japan, during the Sakoku or seclusion period of Japan, imposed by the Tokugawa shogunate (the first seven games in the timeline take place between 1786 to 1790. Warrior's Rage for the PS1, the last game in the timeline, takes place in 1811 and Haohmaru is potrayed as an old man). The Last Blade 1 and 2 take place during the Bakumatsu or late Tokugawa shogunate era, between 1853 and 1867. Hell, the Japanese name the Last Blade series is “Romance of the Bakumatsu”. What I'm saying here is that there's a huge time gap between both game series in terms of background setting.

And no, neither franchise takes place in the same universe. There's no evidence for that.

Arc System Works revealed a new Guilty Gear -STRIVE- trailer showing new alternate colors for the cast.
