Interestingly, two very different directions were taken regarding the voice acting, provided by a male in English and a female in Japanese (Yū Kobayashi), helped by the androgynous appearance of the character, who is otherwise non-binary. Here is our translation of its description available on the official website:
Will
The Crimson Scythe swaying in an enchanting dance. The elegant mower.
Testament was once human, before being surgically altered into Gear.
Under the control of the Conclave, he worked to revive Justice. However, after the events of the Second Holy Order Selection Tournament, he regained his senses of himself. Feeling guilty, he hid in the Forest of Demons, before resolving to protect the half-Gear Dizzy from the humans who were pursuing her. Although it started out as a way to atone for his sins, it ended up bringing back his human sensibility.
He now lives with the elderly couple who once cared for Dizzy. This new life has brought him peace of mind, and he now enjoys this shared happiness.

But that’s far from everything, since the release of Will will be accompanied as planned by that of a second traineeship additional revealed at the same time, White House Reborn, which will also be possible to buy separately from March 28 on PC, but not before March 31 on PS5 and PS4. As the name suggests, the home of the President of the USA in the game is undergoing reconstruction, due to the events of the storyline. In contrast, the narrative content Another Story will not arrive until the end of April and will offer a different perspective on the loremostly spotlighting characters that did not appear in the base story.
Otherwise, all players will be able to discover the mode Digital Figure March 28, presented below in video, which will allow you to create original scenes by placing the characters and various elements of scenery, adjusting facial expressions and the angle of the camera, or even by applying filters, before sharing everything with the community on the web. The possibilities for creating dioramas seem insane!
And as you might have guessed from its title, the existence of Season Pass 1 will obviously lead to that ofa Season Pass 2now official, which will include 4 additional fighters. Its release, presumably later this year, will be accompanied by the addition from cross play between PS5, PS4 and PC. Updates to stabilize the online game with the improvement of the servers and a reduction in the connection time to the latter are also planned.
You would have understood it, Guilty Gear: Strive will still be talked about beyond the competitive scene in the coming months. You can buy it at the price of €40.01 on Amazon.
