A tweet to the official X account confirmed a July 23rd release date for Ferra, and Takeda early access. Its implied a quality control issue led to the decision to delay Ferra's release, ensuring "she can assist to the best of her abilities". The diminutive assist character was featured in a gameplay trailer for the super-villain crossover guest Homelander --- now available.
Before we can release Ferra as our next Kameo Fighter, we need a bit more time to make sure she can assist to the best of her abilities. Ferra will now be available alongside Takeda's early access release on July 23. We thank you for your patience and will keep you updated.
