The release trailer for Naoto from Persona 4 Arena, Vatista from Under Night In Birth, and Hakumen from Blazblue. There was also another surprise that Arcsystemworks left the team a little in confusion but in agreement with Yang’s gameplay and concept.

NetherRealms drops an April patch and no its not April fools! Injustice 2 saw some bug fixes and a few balance patches that may or may not test the waters for a new tier list. Bandai shows us the true power in a trailer of Zamasu (Fused) and the team speculates on whether this new patch to come will break the game in a negative or positive way. Kratos might be a possibility to join the new Soulcalibur VI game as God of War just released and seems to have some mechanics that could be useful in the new Soulcalibur VI system. Faulk is finally release and her patch came with some hidden changes that could effect some characters. CrashTag gets really hype over the Astaroth costume for M.Bison as it seems very fitting for an opposing force.
