Guilty Gear -STRIVE- Balance Update 1.18 Patch Notes

  

Arc System Works has posted the full patch notes for Guilty Gear -STRIVE-'s upcoming (free) Battle Balance update arriving June 10th, 2022. The notes list all of the updates made to the game's core gameplay mechanics as well as character-specific changes. Once again, Arc System Works' patch notes go into great detail concerning some of the character updates, citing very specific reasons for the changes in most cases. "We've made it more rewarding to use moves that have been under-utilized and techniques requiring challenging inputs, while also making the controls more comfortable," said Arc System Works.

As previously reported, the 1.18 balance update will add a macro for Faultless Defense. This allows players to map Faultless Defense to a single button press. A bug related to back-dashes will also be corrected with the release of the patch.

Arc System Works will also be testing Steam to PS5/PS4 crossplay sometime this Summer (no date for that announced yet). Please stay tuned on Fighters Generation for more Guilty Gear -STRIVE- news and content.
