When is Queen Dizzy Coming to Guilty Gear Strive Season 4 Pass?
Dizzy is one ofGuilty Gear’s most beloved characters, first appearing inGuilty Gear X, the second mainline entry in the long-running fighting game franchise. She eventually marries Ky Kiske, another veteran fighter of the series, and together they have a child in the form of Sin Kiske. Dizzy is considered the daughter of Sol Badguy, due to a variety of complex circumstances that stem from Sol’s past as Frederick Bulsara and his fiance, Aria Hale. Many fans were happy to see Queen Dizzy, as well as the developers acknowledging Sol and Dizzy’s newfound familial bond. Queen Dizzy has a more regal appearance compared to her prior outfit in games likeGuilty Gear Xrd.
Following Dizzy’s release will be Venom, who will be released sometime in early 2025. After Venom will be Unika sometime in 2025, followed by Lucy.Lucy’s guest appearance inGuilty Gear Striveis quite surprising, as she is the series' first ever crossover fighter, and from a third-party IP instead of an in-house guest from other Arc System Works properties likeBlazBlueorUnder-Night In-Birth. In the meantime, many fans are excited to see the return of Dizzy inStrive’s fourth season.
