Get ready, fighting game enthusiasts!

The highly anticipated DLC character Venom is set to launch on March 24th for Guilty Gear: Strive! This enigmatic fighter, voiced by the talented Junichi Suwabe in Japanese and Howard Wang in English, is not only easy to pick up for newcomers but also brings his own unique flair to the game.

Meet Venom: The Baker with a Dark Side

Venom's story is as intriguing as his combat style. Initially introduced as a gentle and honest man struggling to navigate his moral compass, he’s known for his rigid speech and preference for reason—yet he holds a deep appreciation for emotions, empathy, and humility. Fans of the series will recall his tragic death during an altercation with Bedman, the fearsome leader of the Assassin’s Guild. However, thanks to the intervention of Robo-Ky, he gets a second chance at life.

But life takes an unexpected turn for Venom after this harrowing experience. Rather than simply returning to combat, he finds a new path as a baker. With the surprising support from his ally Zato, Venom comes into ownership of a local bakery, where he discovers an entirely different kind of 'battle'—one rooted in the heart of the community he serves.

In his dual role, Venom transforms from a humble baker by day to the shadowy vigilante 'Phantom' by night, vowing to protect the pride and spirit of his town’s residents. He becomes deeply connected to their struggles, defending their 'battlefield' against those who threaten it.
