Arc System Works has officially revealed Lucy from Cyberpunk: Edgerunners as the final DLC character for Guilty Gear -Strive- Season Pass 4. The fan-favorite netrunner will join the roster on August 21, 2025, bringing her iconic Monowire attacks and full Quickhack abilities straight from Cyberpunk 2077.
Lucy’s debut trailer premiered during EVO 2025, showcasing how she seamlessly brings the world of Night City into the high-octane 2D fighter. She wields a deadly combination of whip-like Monowires and a handgun, but what truly sets her apart is her ability to Quickhack opponents mid-battle. Time slows as she selects hacks such as Algorithm Malfunction, Optics Inhibition, and Energy Siphon, all using her Cyberdeck RAM in a system that closely mirrors Cyberpunk 2077. Debuff icons appear above her enemies’ heads, just as they do in CD Projekt Red’s RPG, giving the crossover an authentic touch that fans are already praising.
Lucy’s arrival also marks a milestone for Guilty Gear -Strive-, which recently surpassed 3.5 million players since its 2021 launch. Arc System Works confirmed that the game isn’t slowing down, with Guilty Gear -Strive- 2.00 planned for 2026 and teasers of two new characters—speculated to be Robo-Ky and Jam Kuradoberi—sparking fresh excitement for the series’ future.
This crossover also continues Cyberpunk 2077’s surprising second life. After a rough 2020 debut, the game has been revitalized by updates and the hit Netflix anime Cyberpunk: Edgerunners. Lucy’s popularity remains strong, making her a natural fit for this unexpected fighting game cameo. Fans of both series can look forward to testing her moves when she becomes available later this month.
