DNF Duel Teases New Spectre Character; Coming To Switch Next Year

During Arc System Works’ ArcRevo Japan 2022 esports fighting game tournament, the publisher made new announcements after the tournament’s DNF Duel top 8 tournament.

For starters, DNF Duel will be getting a new character: the Spectre. According to the original Dungeon Fighter Online title (the game DNF Duel is based on), the Spectre fights using sword-sheathing techniques. She’ll most likely fight using moves inspired by Guilty Gear’s Johnny, Samurai Shodown’s Ukyo, and The Last Blade’s Moriya Minakata/Hibiki. After all, these characters use “sword-sheathing techniques” as part of their attacks.
