New Guilty Gear Strive Starter Guide focuses on Bedman?

In preparation for the release of as the new Guilty Gear Strive Bedman? DLC character, Arc System Works published a new Starter Guide video. This first look at the character’s moveset showcases a whole new play style compared to its previous iteration. Bedman? and a new battle stage are set to release on April 6, 2023.

Check out the Guilty Gear Strive Bedman? Starter Guide video below.

As you can see in the video, Bedman?’s main highlight is the “error 6E” state which activates after some special moves. This feature allows for an additional attack after a certain amount of time and changes according to the move which activated it. Overall, the movelist is focused on putting pressure on the opponent by connecting combos with each of “error 6E” follow-up attacks.

Bedman first appeared on Guilty Gear Xrd -Sign- as a main antagonist. However, this new iteration is composed of the original Bedman’s sister, Delilah, and his apparently possessed bedframe as a single character. Furthermore, to signify this bizarre turn of events the “?” was added to the name and the moveset completely changed for a more mechanically-malfunctioning approach.

Bedman? is the third DLC character of Guilty Gear Strive Season Pass 2, previously joined by Bridget and Sin Kiske. A fourth and final character along with a new battle stage are expected to be released on May 2023.

Guilty Gear Strive is available for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC, and the Bedman? DLC character and the Fairy’s Forest Factory stage will launch together on April 6, 2023.
