Just a reminder that Leo Whitefang is coming out as a DLC character for the Japanese version of GGXrd on December 18th. Some official footage of him has finally been made available from 4gamer, where Pachi breaks down the character. Famitsu also has some sample combos as well as gameplay footage vs CPU Ky.
Another 4gamer article has more details and screenshot on Leo as well as images of two upcoming sets of DLC palettes. Christmas themed palettes for every character will be available for free from December 18-24, and Playstation palettes will be available for PS Plus subscribers from January 8 to February 3 of next year.
Now that console GGXrd has been out for almost two weeks, here is a summary of the notable videos that have popped up since then. There are a lot of videos in this post, so they have posted after the break.
Mix Up Night was on December 13, and was Japan’s first big console Xrd tournament. There was a special stream on Monday of that week with Woshige(Millia), Dogura(Sol), and Haitani(Zato) on netplay. You may remember Haitani as one of the strongest Makoto players in Street Fighter IV.

Inoue has been playing Xrd on the Godsgarden stream regularly since the console release, and the December 12 episode of KaoTV had a special guest: FAB Potemkin! Most of the episode is him netplaying in a public lobby, but in the first half of his netplay adventures his lobby gets invaded by the Mikado regulars like Ain, Roi, Konsome, Kazuki, and Taka.
Eita has also been streaming Xrd regularly, and on the 13th he had two special guests: JT and Ogawa! JT has picked up Sin for the console release, and he plays against Ogawa for almost 2 hours here.
H.H also streamed a first to 10 exhibition match between Shuuto and Koichi, who has picked up Elphelt for the console release.
