So Ive been doing a bit of thinking. From the onset of the first trailer, obviously the biggest question we all have is WHEN? When in 2018?
Ill go ahead and make a prophetic prediction... The Release date is August 07 2018.
Quote me on this ;)
After a fair bit of contemplation, I have concluded that the release date will be around Evo 2018 (Aug 03 - Aug 05).
Give or take the week before, during, or after.
So, we're looking at a late july or early August release window.
So we see above a total of 20 base character slots.
We have a a total of 8 characters already announced : Mitsu, Sophie, Groh, Xianghua, Nightmare, Kilik, Ivy and Zas.
So 12 more to go. Right?
We have as it seems 2 characters revealed every month (perhaps 3). Lets say 2 for now.
So 12/2 = 6..... or perhaps
12/3 = 4
We are currently on the last day of Feb (as per this post) So we are looking at 4-6 months from today which takes us to June through August at latest.
I think July August is a realistic expectation...
What say you?
How did I come to this estimation? Well Ive reviewed the past release dates of the franchise (No spin offs) and here are the results :
Released Arcade
1995
June 1996 (Ver. II)
Initial release date: July 30, 1998
