So with the recent news its looking like to Hwang, Lizardman and a guest character either 2B or Fire Emblem character (girl)

I don't think that's right. The fact we have a lizardman race option makes me think we're going to have Hwang, Aeon, and Guest 2.

I also find it extremely unlikely that it will be 2B (slightly higher chance than FE) or a Fire Emblem character...especially considering how Tekken's turned out. I think it will be something completely unexpected...that said I have no idea what could be extremely popular that they could throw into a fighting game and sell really well.

oh i meant to say Aeon my bad.

2B has been the most requested and sought after by the community and would make the most sense. A fire emblem character is not far out of reach either. i think verg did a write up on it. but idk how that plays out with nintendo characters crossing over to ps4, xbox and pc
 
2b has been most requested by the SC community, but they may be looking to reach outside of that to bring in more casuals. I won't be surprised if it's some league of legends character or some movie/comic character.

Could this be a hint that the next character announced will be a female ?

( Cassandra is one of the main rival of Raphael. There is Amy / Viola also . Or a new female character maybe)

I won't be surprised if this isn't related to an announcement, and just Okubo praying / fangirling for more characters in SC himself lol.

Some bad news for you if Vergeben is to be believed. Lizardman (hopefully Aeon), Hwang, and Guest Character 2 are quite likely to be the characters in the season pass. While you are right in that they lack popularity you assume that Namco actually wants this game to succeed.

Tch, you mean bad news for Namco/Bandai.

Nah, she really doesn't.

For mass appeal a GoT character really makes the most sense. Especially with the final season starting up early next year.

That’s what I’ve been saying. Imagine that, GoT is super popular and even a single tweet from them would bring hype. Also, Jon Snow would be an easy add if they use Darth Vader’s moveset. PS needs easy cuz they already can’t finish characters...

The movelist would be short because everyone on game of thrones dies

Indeed.
On a more serious note though, the only thing that could be interesting to see is Night King but there are issues with that.

We can reasonably assume there will be some epic showdown at the end of the season with him where we actually get a good depiction of his abilities and what he can do. So if PS was going to make a movelist out of him, i would want them to have access to HBO's script and general idea of what Night King does. But it isnt realistic to think they would allow something like that, basically leaking their surprises ahead of time on this video game that is relatively speaking unpopular. It essentially does HBO no favors while vastly supporting SC.

Every other character from that show would be pretty boring in terms of a moveset.
 
They can always borrow from some relevant fighting style though to enhance them. Is GoT popular in Japan? They might go for something that is more universally popular but I am not sure.

I'm sure they could get creative with it. If Tekken can make a movelist with Negan, theres no doubt someone like Jon Snow can be a character

Negan seems way easier though. For one, he's probably going to be using his bat, which automatically sets him apart from everyone else in the game. Jon Snow just has a longsword, which Geralt already has along with magic to make his moveset flashier. Jon has nothing to really set him much further apart from Geralt and also no gimmick to make his moveset more interesting. Design-wise, a GoT character would be a fine addition, but in terms of moveset, any possible guest would be pretty bland.

That’s like say Sophitia and Cass are the same...

That is because TWD uses a lot of improvised weapons and supplies by all characters. Especially when you consider Negan is a villain and runs his own gang empire. For those reasons they have good excuses to give him a lot things besides just Lucille.

GoT is very different, Jon Snow carries around a sword and that is pretty much it. He's a very straight forward and honest character even in combat. It wouldnt make a lot of sense to give him Wild Fire vials, Faceless masks, Geofrey's crossbow, black magic, Warg summoning or anything else from that show. They really cant get creative with him.

At least not if you want to accurately represent the character they can not.
 
SC doesn’t have the mass appeal that Tekken has had, and is continuing to gain, so I doubt someone outside a video game franchise will do much for the series.
 
Crossing my fingers for this guy being the guest

They could implement his dog similar to how Kazumi or Zwei.
 
Jon Snow could use Ghost. Plus we’d srguably have a ranger-type CaS. Don’t have to worry about a stage. His could be the snow stage. Plus Geralt is also originally a literary character.

My other guess is Nakoruru.
