Guilty Gear Strive returns on the 13th May for its second open beta. It'll be available to download and play on both PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4. Just like the first beta, it'll include online matches as well as a versus mode where you can play against the CPU or a friend locally.
All 15 characters from the game's base roster will be playable this time around. Anji Mito and I-No — the final two fighters to be revealed — weren't present in the first open beta.
Again, it all begins on the 13th May, and it'll run for three full days, until the 16th May. You'll be able to download the beta starting from the 7th May.
This second beta will also feature a revamped online system. A rematch option has been added (which was sorely missed in the first beta), as well a way to queue for matches with other players.
We were hugely impressed by the previous Guilty Gear Strive open beta. In our preview, we stated that Strive is shaping up to be "the next great fighting game", heaping praise on its character designs, combat, gorgeous graphics, and outrageously good online netcode. You can read the full Hands On through the link.

Hook it into my veins!
Finally, I get to play Anji.
You also dont need PS+ to play Online during the Beta
I'm honestly probably gonna play Ramlethal and I hate it cause shes oversimplified compared to her Xrd self but I like her character design the most. I was hoping for Jack o to come back. :[
Sweet! Can't wait.
Didn't get a chance to try the 1st beta so I might get in on this one. Hopefully Bedman will be dlc at some point as there's nothing quite like winning as a guy that's just always asleep!
@ShogunRok Hi there friend.
Absolutely. I kinda felt some weird withdrawals from not being able to play more GG Strive. It´s so good.
Hopping they made some necessary changes to some characters, like Chipp, one of my mains, that clearly needs some buffs.
It´s going to be fun fighting more Rams and Gios....... And I-no shenanigans now....... Fun times ahead 😉
Cheers, stay safe and happy gaming to us all
