During the Arc World Tour 2024 Finals and subsequent Guilty Gear Strive tournament rounds, as well as on Arc System Works’ YouTube channels, we were given a comprehensive preview of Venom. Venom, an assassin with a dark magic theme revolving around billiard balls and cue sticks, looked better than ever during this showcase. It was also announced that Venom will be released on March 24, 2025. His abilities include deploying up to four balls that can be shot at various angles based on the normal he strikes them with. Additionally, he has the capability to charge a shot and turn the ball into a multi-hit projectile. Lastly, his powerful super move, Dark Angel, drains health even when blocked.
