The last character for SamSho 2019’s Season 2 had been veiled in mystery after all. Ubisoft’s For Honor has been interesting to say the least as one of the few mainstream melee team fighters (and a good one if our Shacknews review has anything to say about it), but coming over to SNK to lend one of its very first characters to Samurai Shodown is a shocker. The Warden as the final character of the Season 2 DLC for Samurai Shodown is a pretty interesting surprise that few people probably saw coming. You can see the Warden in action in the trailer below. The Warden weighs chivalry against bushido with his knightly stature and massive longsword and looks like he has some charge attacks, sword combos, and even a catapult to throw death down upon his foes. Set for release on June 24, 2020, the Warden is closing out the second season of DLC which included the archer Mina, the water ninja Sogetsu, and the horny-on-main crane maid Iroha. SNK revealed the surprise crossover with Ubisoft and For Honor via a trailer launched on the SNK WORLD YouTube Channel on June 23, 2020. Coming over from Ubisoft’s brutal team melee For Honor, the Warden will be Samurai Shodown’s next DLC character. It’s well into its second season of DLC characters and the upcoming one is a doozy. Samurai, ninja, knights, and other weapon-wielding warriors from altogether are clashing blades in classic style and revitalized visuals in the new game, but Samurai Shodown still has more to give. The return of Samurai Shodown into the fighting game scene has been an incredible one since its arrival in 2019.
