Arc System Works has revealed Ramlethal Valentine as the newest character joiningGuilty Gear Strive. She is featured is the new, fourth trailer of the upcoming fighting game.Ramlethal is a fairly recentGuilty Gearcharacter as she was first introduced in the previous iteration,Guilty Gear Xrd. As a boss character. She’s cute, has shark teeth, and two huge swords she dual-wields. Ramlethal’s design didn’t change much fromXrdtoStrive, and she’s still as lightly dressed as well. The new bandages on her left side also brings in a half Zettai Ryouiki factor in. I’ll be particularly amused if some claim this is an attempt to cover her up. Ramlethal Valentine also has a new BGM, which you can hear in the trailer:
