5th Skullgirls Character Revealed!

Our 5th fighter to enter the brawl is known as Ms. Fortune. While her name may be somewhat of a bad pun, she looks like she's going to fit in right with the rest of the cast. Given that all we know is the above picture and a small snip of her story as shared by the Playstation Blog, we'll have to wait to see more. It is known that she can detach her body parts (probably along all those scar lines) and use them for hitting the opponent more. Maybe like a weird version of Dhalsim... Oh well, we'll have to wait and see!

We also get the second version of the developers' Friday Night Fights, where they show off how some of the characters are played. This week is a plain one-on-one fight featuring two of the other characters announced, Parasoul and Cerebella.
