You may think this game could simply be an expensive DLC for Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN- and you'd be wrong.
Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR- brings up new characters, new game mechanics, global lighting, a new lobby system, a new story arc and a lot more goodies (extended gallery, diorama figures, fishing...).

Dizzy, Johnny, Jam get back to Guilty Gear along with Crow Raven from Guilty Gear 2: Overture and 2 brand-new characters, no need to say that the amount of detail fits Xrd standards (anime like shadows and moves, now even with global lighting)
New mechanics are definitely not that new/exiting but they still add something to the gameplay, the new lobby system on the other hand is amazing: you get your customizable avatar moving around inside a room with actual cabinets (max 4 + 1 for training mode) and you challenge people in line on the room, amazing.
Story mode feels actually a lot better than Xrd -SIGN- one because the team focused more on "anime", with better photography and camera angles and the addition of global lighting.
Finally goodies section is so huge... a few honorable mentions are: voice actor bonus speech, diorama action figures, usable (during fights) music tracks from all over Guilty Gear history.

Of course everything from the paragraph above on top of Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN-, probably with a better netplay (lv.3 connections grant you a very good match, lv.4 connections allow totally safe reaction play throughout the game, very enjoyable).
Right now I cannot recommend any fighting game for PC better than this one and personally I think this is one of the greatest ones I ever played.

Strongly recommended for everyone, a must have for anime and/or fighting games enthusiasts.

Dropped by to say that it was Raven who was added, not Crow :ggxrdramlethal:
