Guilty Gear Quest gets its first guest character – and the first in the series’ history – and it’s a great choice.
Lucy from the Cyberpunk Edgerunners anime is coming to the game in 2025 as the final character in Season Pass 4. Announced at EVO 2024, she’ll be coming to the game in ‘Summer 2025’ – that’s likely between the months of June and September. Before her, Season 4 will add returning characters Dizzy and Venom, as well as Unika – a new character from the upcoming Guilty Gear Strive: Dual Rulers animated movie.
Season 4, which officially launches today (July 22) with balance adjustments and a premium character color pack, will also soon add a 3v3 team battle mode, even more character colors, and two additional stages to the game coming next year.
While Season 4 announcements unfortunately leaked earlier on developer Arc System Works’ official channels, it’s undoubtedly an incredibly exciting lineup of characters. Dizzy and Venom have been highly requested characters for the game since its launch in 2021, so it’s nice to see them finally return.
While the biggest news here is certainly the addition of Lucy Cyberpunk Edgerunners. As the deuteragonist of the popular Netflix anime, Lucy quickly became a fan favorite and while her announcement for Guilty Gear Quest came as a big surprise, I feel like she fits perfectly into that universe.
We don’t know yet whether Cyberpunk2077 Developer CD Projekt Red has one Guilty Gear aims to-related content in store for its open-world RPG – and there’s no concrete release date for Lucy’s addition yet – but I’d wager there’s a lot Cyberpunk fans are going to pick it up Guilty Gear Quest in 2025, when she arrives.
