Shinobi Refle: Senran Kagura will add its second downloadable character before the February 22 launch of Senran Kagura Burst Re:Newal for PlayStation 4 in Japan, series producer Kenichiro Takaki said on Twitter.
Takaki did not specifically name the character, but provided the following drawing of the character, which is clearly Murasaki.
Shinobi Refle: Senran Kagura is available now for Switch via the Nintendo eShop in Japan. Asuka is packaged with the base game, and Yumi is available as downloadable content.
Shinobi Refle: Senran Kagura will add Murasaki as an additional character via downloadable content on January 18, publisher Marvelous announced.
Here is an overview of the character:
Murasaki (voiced by Sayuri Yahagi)
“It’s a secret between you and I… just us two.”
A girl who tends to stay in her room with her negative thoughts, but seems to have made up her mind to come outside. She seems to have a request for “you.”
Shinobi Refle: Senran Kagura is available now for Switch via the Nintendo eShop in Japan. Asuka is the only character included with the base game, and Yumi was the first additional character to launch via downloadable content.
Marvelous has released a new trailer and screenshots for Senran Kagura Burst Re:Newal introducing the game’s “Burst Mode.”
Your Burst Gauge will increase as you perform actions, which will enable you to trigger Burst Mode. In Burst Mode, your attack power will increase significantly for a fixed period of time. You can even connect infinite Aerial Raves.
By pressing a specific button in Burst Mode, you can trigger a powerful special attack called “Burst Finish,” which does a clean sweep of enemies, whether they are on the ground or in the sky.
Furthermore, if you defeat a boss character in Burst Mode, each character will have a dedicated cut-in in which they completely destroy the opponent’s costume.
Marvelous also announced that Miyabi will join Yumi as an additional character part of the game’s “Yumi’s Prequel” story add-on, which will be paid downloadable content (and is also included with the limited edition).
In addition to the paid Miyabi and Yumi, the following characters will be available as free downloadable content for a period of two weeks, after which they will cost money: Murakumo, Yozakura, Shiki, Minori, Murasaki, Imu, Ryobi, and Ryona. A release date for the characters were not announced.
Senran Kagura Burst Re:Newal is due out for PlayStation 4 in Japan on February 22.
