The revival of the SNK series, Samurai Shodown, is finally here, and it seems to be living up to the franchise’s lofty name pretty well. There’s no rest for the wicked, however, as the game’s season pass has already been detailed with four fighters along with release dates for each one.

The DLC will include the already announced Rimururu in August. Basara is coming in October, Kazuki Kazama is ending the year in December, and Wan-Fu will start us off in the new year when he releases in February. You can check out the characters below, all classic characters from the series’ past. If you buy the game before June 30th, you will receive all four free of charge.
