Guilty Gear Strive revealed the patch notes for update 1.40 on the game’s official website. This new update mainly focuses on adjustments to individual characters rather than the universal mechanics.
Essentially, the core concepts, strengths, and weaknesses of each character have been reevaluated. The latest DLC character, Queen Dizzy, will arrive alongside this update, being the first Season Pass 4 character. The patch will be distributed during the maintenance on October 31.
