Guilty Gear Strive fans have been waiting over 3 months to see who the second DLC inclusion of the game's second season pass would be, and now they finally have an answer.

Arc System Works announced today in their special IGN stream that Sin Kiske is very soon coming to Strive.

Unlike most of Strive's other returning DLC characters, Sin's move set appears to be pretty similar to how he appeared in Guilty Gear Xrd REV 2, but there's still some big changes made to how his mechanics work.

Instead of a hunger gauge limiting the quarter-gear from going absolutely nuts, Sin now has a stamina meter with 3 sections that'll take a stock every time he performs a follow-up to Beak Driver — which will then automatically refill over time.

That stamina bar doesn't just apply to his giant poke either, as the showcase reveals Sin can also perform follow-ups after the Hawk Baker reversal for additional attacks or potentially make the move safe.

The hungry boy can still eat food to give himself some sort of buff that appears to have different levels although ArcSys wouldn't really go into detail about what that power-up is.

As was revealed in the new trailer, Sin will be arriving this Thursday, November 24, 2022 for those who own Season Pass 2 or are looking to pick him up solo.
