World Heroes' Jeanne D'Arc is the latest addition to the SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy roster.


EDIT: so looks like the spelling of her name was changed from Janne to Jeanne. A rather odd choice if you ask me, that would be like renaming J. Karn as G. Khan. Anyway, I am just going to assume they changed the name because is more accurate, as 'Janne' comes from Dutch rather than French.

Also, those pictures featuring the rest of the World Heroes cast look pretty cool.

EDIT 2: A new World Heroes manga (wait, what?) and a OST release for the series are coming very soon

What's next? Is SNK going to tell us that a new World Heroes game is going to be confirmed?

EDIT 3: friendly reminder that Jeanne's whip-sword predates 'Ivy' Isabella Valentine's by at least 5 years. Jeanne's whip-sword debuted in Wolrd Heroes 2 as part of one of her special moves in the year 1993, with the character of Jeanne herself debuting in the first WH game a year prior. Ivy, on the other hand, debuted in Soul Calibur 1 for the Dreamcast/Arcade back in 1998.

Unfortunately for SNK (and giving credit where credit is due), Ivy's moveset took the concept of the whip-sword fighting style much farther than Jeanne ever could.
