This morning, Arc System Works premiered a new Guilty Gear -STRIVE- Story Mode trailer live
on YouTube. (The first trailer for Story Mode was released back in
October 2020.) In what looks to be the most ambitious and fleshed out cinematic Story Mode of the series, the latest GGST trailer previews about 2 minutes of cutscenes and reveals the setting will take place in the U.S.A, Washington D.C. being one of the key locations. Several new faces to the series also make their debut in the fully-voiced (in
English) cinematic trailer, most likely non-playable characters exclusive to Story Mode, but you never know at this point. Without spoiling anything, the end of the trailer also features a "teaser"... as a familiar male voice is heard speaking. (Veteran fans of the series now might have a pretty good idea who the next Season 1 character might be.)
Enjoy the official trailer, below.
