More Showdown
With one season of new content in the bag, SNK is prepping a second round of downloadable content for their newest Samurai Showdown. Released last year for PS4 and Xbox One, the new version of the classic fighter returned the series to its former glory, with 2D action and lots of classic characters.
The roster expansion continued with an initial season of DLC, and now is set to roll on into season two. Fans can expect a trio of returning fighters (at least) with one mystery combatant yet to unveiled.
- [Mina] Mina made her first debut in SAMURAI SHODOWN V in 2003. Now she’s back and ready for action. Born in Ryukyu with strong spiritual energy, she wields her bow clearing the world of evil demons. Mina reached 1st place in the Dengeki Online’s most wanted DLC characters poll.
- [Sogetsu] Sogetsu returns after making his first appearance in SAMURAI SHODOWN IV in 1996. He’s a fearsome ninja of the Kazama clan, able to control the power of water. Kazuki, his younger brother, made his comeback to SAMURAI SHODOWN in November as a DLC character in Season 1.
- [Iroha]Iroha first spread her wings in SAMURAI SHODOWN VI in 2005. She fights to protect her master at all costs using her two butterfly swords. She claimed 2nd place in Dengeki Online’s most wanted DLC characters poll.
Samurai Showdown is available now for the PS4 and Xbox One, as well as the Stadia, with a Nintendo Switch version landing on February 25th.
