The character is “The Warden” from For Honor. Yes. You got it right. Ubisoft’s For Honor, meaning that Samurai Shodown is getting its first guest character.

The Warden is also going to be the last (and until now mysterious) DLC fighter for the second season pass. The release is on June 24.

You can watch the trailer presented during the show below.

The game is currently available for PS4, Xbox One, Switch, PC via Epic Games Store, and Google Stadia.

Below you can read an official description

Samurai Shodown has enjoyed worldwide success as a blade-wielding fighting game series since its first release in 1993. Over 10 years have passed since the last series installment, and it is now time for Samurai Shodown to return in a brand-new game featuring high-end visuals and gameplay! With its story set one year before the very first installment, warriors and combatants from various backgrounds and with their own goals are about to battle to fulfill their destinies!

Carrying on the Legacy
Faithfully reproducing the game mechanics and atmosphere that contributed to the success of the series, the new game aims to bring the same tense and exhilarating battles that the series is known for. Intense and epic battles are back!

Evolving the Presentation
Using the power of UNREAL ENGINE 4, the series is able to achieve a level of detail never before seen for a totally new visual experience!

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
