Today Nintendo shared a brand new trailer of SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy, revealing a brand new waifu that will soon join the whimsical fray. It’s Jeanne D’Arc from the World Heroes series.
If you’re not familiar with Jeanne, she debuted in the first World Heroes game all the way back in 1992, and she has been a staple of the series since. Of course, she is a homage to France’s national heroine Joan D’Arc, even if her behavior couldn’t be more different. Apparently, this translates into the rather comedic nature of SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy rather well.
Jeanne will be released on December 13th, joining previous DLC characters including gender bent Skullomania from Fighting EX Layer and Thief Arthur from the Million Arthur series.
You can check out the brand new trailer below, and see if Jeanne manages to charm you into making her your main. Personally, I am sold.
Incidentally, the World Heroes series has been out of the spotlight for quite a while. It’s certainly one of SNK’s intellectual properties that would be worth revisiting.
SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy is currently available for PS4 and Nintendo Switch. It’s published in the west by NIS America.
