Guilty Gear Strive’s files and source code have been leaked. This leak seems to be severe as it can lead to those having it can literally make their own version of Guilty Gear Strive and port it just about anywhere. 1TB of Uncompressed data and 3 different builds seem to be out in the wild.
Both Season 4 DLC characters Unika and Lucy, are reported to be seen with these files. Cyberpunk Edgerunners Lucy was meant to be released in the latest DLC. According to Dextero, some of Lucy’s animations are not complete. Some beta items, such as characters(Super Saiyan Goku from FighterZ), were kicking around the files, also. New moves for characters might have also been a part of this. This seems to be that of an inside job within Arc System Works’ ranks.
Rooflemonger’s news video on the subject has shown a render of the Edgerunner herself within Guilty Gear Strive.
Sadly, this comes ahead of the teaser trailer of Guilty Gear Strive’s Unika gameplay trailer and May 27th release date. Her debut is from the show Dual Rulers, which is possibly at its’ mid point at the time of this writing.

While the leak solidifies the chance of seeing a Season 5 alongside certain Guilty Gear Xrd characters potentially returning, there has been speculation that this could possibly lead to remote hacking if playing online. The best course of action is to possibly stay away from the online matchmaking until the matter is resolved.
