I have the Famitsu and it's written as ゲルトライヤー. With a ト, not a ド. His airdash is a glide that descends quickly.

Raven has been revealed to be a playable character in the console version Guilty Gear Xrd Revelator. Originally appearing as a story NPC, Raven made his debut as a playable character in Guilty Gear 2: Overture but Revelator marks the first time that he's playable in a fighting game. One of the servants of That Man, Raven is a masochist who gets stronger the more damage he takes. Source: Famitsu

http://www.famitsu.com/news/201602/16099445.html Raven confirmed playable. Also, Dizzy teased with a silhouette, so she probably has a new outfit...

Fenrich ranked up to "Hades" rank. Duodecim Head Hero Kishin Hades And the 30th rank is...?

No, there's only 3 locked spots. The 4th spot is "random select". It will probably become a character in "Revelator Plus #" Kappa. Also of note: rematch doesn't go back to the VS screen and reloads the entire match any more, it instead just restart the match with all the assets still loaded. Hooray for quicker rematches.

https://twitter.com/zatuyoP/status/695540217109872640 Izanami by Mori. (That almost looks like it says "Es 0" but it's too small to tell.)

A bonus character is just a "shadow"-version of a regular character.

It's not chargeable, that's its startup.

No they don't; the Mujuu no Tate screenshot is her using Tengai no Hi while Mujuu no Tate is active.

New info. http://www.inside-games.jp/article/2016/01/25/95263.html Tengai no Hi = Fireball move. Gets bigger the longer the charge. Jiai no Yuu = Command grab that drains the opponent's health and barrier. Can be used while floating as if it were an air throw to catch them when they jump. Araragi = The Yasakani no Magatama is shot forward like a projectile. Will stop in position when the button is released, so it can be used a a set-type projectile. Hazen no Kui = That kick-teleport-kick super. OD version adds more hits.

I'm sorry, the kana on that command list is tiny and "ha" and "ho" look similar in hiragana..

On closer inspection, it's actually Tourai no Hoko. I will correct my earlier post.

Maybe we'll find out about Dizzy next month? Since the release date for console has now been revealed, we're likely to get monthly XrdR coverage from Famitsu until release.

Specials: Float - Input "Jump" in midair -> Float Cancel - Input "Jump" while floating Tengai no Hi - 41236C (chargeable) Tourai no Hoko - 214A or B Gaihou no Geki - 236A Renge no Kai - j.63214B Jiai no Yuu - 63214C Mujuu no Tate - 623B -> Mujuu no Gou - 623B during Mujuu no Tate Shizuku - 41236D (chargeable) Araragi - 63214D (chargeable / can manipulate by pressing 2 or 8 while charging) Distortion Drives: Hazen no Kui - 236236B Kyomu no Koku - 214214C Jindou no Koku - 720A (consumes 100 meter) In normal mode her C attacks have followups when pressing C again. In Magatama mode she loses the followup C attacks and the ability to block but in their place gains 4D, 2D and 6D as projectile attacks. 5D switches between modes. Exceed Accel is called "Nayuta <Arc Drive>".

Actually, Izanami is coming on the 28th.

http://jbbs.shitaraba.net/bbs/read.cgi/game/45148/1453198153/26 Real leak: the float is not instead of her jump. It's only instead of her double jump. While floating she can do ground attacks, specials and even dash while in air, but she she cannot jump for the duration of it. Drive is Sharin/Exodus Arc. It activates her Special Unit "Yasakani no Magatama". While active she can shoot projectiles with Direction+D but she cannot block. It also gives a complete change in abilities from her normal mode. Special Move: Mujuu no Tate. Creates a barrier. While in Yasakani no Magatama mode this will drain her barrier meter but give her invincibility to strike attacks. Overdrive: Zekkai/Arc Force. Gives full access to the abilities of both modes at the same time, can block while active. Distortion Drive: Jindou no Koku. Stops time.

Apparently the special mechanic I mentioned before is a float. She can't jump, instead she floats.

http://blog.esuteru.com/archives/8476011.html Japanese release date: May 26th Kum Haehyun is a first-print bonus DLC (a la Elphelt) Limited edition includes a "Visual Fan Book".

http://www.famitsu.com/news/201601/19097470.html Kum Haehyun playable in the console version.

http://www.famitsu.com/news/201601/19097479.html Izanami confirmed playable. Drive is called "Exodus Arc", appears to be a stance switching drive. Also appears to have some special mechanic involving the floating wheel behind her. According to Ho-chan/Stunedge, the special mechanic is a float, which she has in place of being able jump. We have a character who can't jump. Overdrive appears to be called "Arc Fall" if I'm reading the katakana right (it also has a kanji name but I can't read it), I don't know what it does. Need full article.

No, there's no balance changes.

I'm half expecting Izanami to play similarly to A.B.A given the technique she apparently taught to Relius. However, I don't think there's enough info to continue with this discussion about her potential playstyle.

Apart from the additional story content, the Act 2 update also includes numerous additions such as the ability to select a "VS CPU" character in Arcade and Sparring, a brand new game mode called "Speed Star", a new course for Score Attack and a number of added features in Sparring. Source: Famitsu

Also, at the beginning a hole in the embryo just exploded (didn't happen in Act 1 OP). All the character quotes are changed (Noel and Mu appear to have met each other...). "Exceed the Limit" became "You can not exceed the Limit".
