Rollback Coming to GGXrd Rev
2
|
|
|
|
 Some
fans might've been hoping for a new
Guilty
Gear STRIVE
character reveal on finals day
of CEOtaku '22, but instead of a new Season 2 character, Arc System Works
announced a Rollback
Netcode upgrade is on the way to the home versions of 2017's Guilty
Gear Xrd REV 2 and 2016's Guilty
Gear Xrd Revelator. ASW also announced a Steam public beta test for the
upcoming rollback
update, planned for "Late October", but hasn't yet
specified the exact dates for the test. The official announcement
trailer from Arc System Works (below) promises "smooth online
play" with opponents "anywhere in the world" are
possible once the rollback update drops. More details are coming soon.
While the Steam version of Guilty Gear Xrd REV 2 / Revelator
will be getting the rollback enhancement, there hasn't been confirmation
yet from Arc System Works that the PlayStation 4 versions will also be
upgraded.
Other Arc System Works fighting games recently updated with Rollback
Netcode include: Guilty
Gear XX Accent Core Plus R, Dragon
Ball FighterZ, Persona
4 Arena Ultimax, BlazBlue:
Central Fiction, and BlazBlue
Cross Tag Battle, all yielding positive results and instantly
growing the online player base / concurrent players online.
In case you haven't been keeping track, this means ALL main / final
installments of each Guilty Gear series (XX, Xrd, STRIVE)
are now playable with rollback netcode! If Arc
System Works continues their trend, we may even see Granblue
Fantasy Versus get a much-needed netcode update eventually.
|
Arc System Works also released the (above) promotional image on social media
today to advertise Guilty
Gear STRIVE's Season Pass 2 which will add 4
new characters to the game, including Bridget
who joined the game back in August. The four newcomers will be joined by two
new stages as well throughout the Season 2 upgrade. No announcements have
been made as to who the 3 additional character might be, but we'll keep
you updated as always! Below is the tweet from ASW announcing the rollback
update.
