Guilty Gear Strive – Second Open Beta Test Set for May 13th

Arc System Works has confirmed that Guilty Gear Strive’s second open beta test will commence on May 13th at 8 PM PT for PS4 and PS5 players. It will be available until May 16th, 7:59 PM PT. All of the characters from the first open beta will be available with I-No and Anji Mito joining the ranks.

Along with Network play (which won’t have Player Matches available for the duration of the beta), there’s Versus, Tutorial and Training modes. PS4 and PS5 players can also battle it out online thanks to cross-platform play. Even better is the fact that PlayStation Plus won’t be needed to try out the online modes.

Those who downloaded the last open beta test client can simply update it to the second – another download isn’t necessary. Guilty Gear Strive is out on June 11th for PS4, PS5 and PC with Deluxe and Ultimate Edition owners on consoles receiving access on June 8th. They also receive some additional outfit colors while everyone who purchases the game before June 25th will receive “Special” colors for Ky Kiske and Sol Badguy that switches their outfits around.
