Hidden Variable, developer for Skullgirls Mobile, will be adding to a new playable character to the roster for its next update, which is due in the upcoming months.
In any case, the new character goes by the name Annie and the following is an excerpt of what the dev has to say about her in the Skullgirls Mobile forum:
Cursed by the Skull Heart to never grow up, Annie has been alive for centuries. Over that time, she’s made it her personal quest to stop the Skull Heart once and for all. To that end, she has acquired numerous skills and items, including her remote parasite, Sagan. Even performing on television works to further her goals as she hopes to educate the world about the dangers of the Skull Heart.
Fiercer than she looks, bravest in the cosmos, she is ANNIE OF THE STARS!
Also answered ahead of time were some questions that players might have had about Annie:
WAS LAB ZERO INVOLVED IN HER CREATION?
Absolutely! All of us at Hidden Variable collaborated closely with the whole team at Lab Zero to help make Annie a reality. While we went into this process knowing that her mobile release was top priority, we also went out of our way to ensure she was ready to take the stage on 2nd Encore when the time comes.ARE THERE OTHER NEW CHARACTERS IN THE QUEUE?
We’ll see! We would LOVE to have Annie simply be the first of many new Skullgirls characters, but – frankly speaking – a lot will depend on how well her launch on mobile and 2nd Encore performs.
Skullgirls Mobile is currently available for the Android and iOS platforms.
