Guilty Gear Xrd REV 2 is a standalone expansion for Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR-.

REV 2 features a short list of minor system changes, significant changes to the game's visuals and camera, and changes ranging from minor to drastic to each member of the cast. On top of changes to the system and characters, REV 2 also features two new additional player characters: Answer and Baiken. The game was initially released on the SEGA RingEdge 2 arcade board with ALL.Net P-ras MULTI and Aime support, and is also available on PS3, PS4 and Steam.

Characters

New Characters

Answer is Chipp Zanuff's dutiful secretary and is a ninja dressed in a business suit. He can throw business cards and teleport to their location or cause shadow clones to attack from their location. He can also set scrolls in the air and do various moves when hanging from them.

Baiken returns from the XX series. She is a ronin with one eye, one arm, and a grudge against That Man for creating the Gears that maimed her and killed her family. Baiken's unique ability is to cancel her guard into attacks for free, forcing opponents to attack her in more unconventional ways.

Tier Lists

Tier lists are made to give a general idea of the character strength. They do not decide the strength of the character, and do not decide who can or will win a given match. Tier lists help act as a basic point to understand which characters have more matchups in which they are advantaged against another character piloted by another theoretically equally skilled player. Opinions vary on exact placement of characters, but REV 2 is generally agreed to balanced enough that characters considered weaker can still succeed.
