Marvel’s newest female super hero, Guillotine, revealed at NYCC

While in attendance at NYCC today, we had the pleasure to check out Marvel: Contest of Champions, the mobile game on both iOS and Android. It's a fighting game like Mortal Kombat or Injustice, as it uses Marvel characters in a 3D environment. During the demo, the development team revealed a brand-new character — Guillotine.

Guillotine is a French/Algerian female fighter who uses a sword that drinks the blood of its enemies. As it cuts through them, it absorbs their blood, and although Guillotine herself is a hero, her sword is evil. This conflict constantly has her at odds with her sword which possessess incredible abilities. Guillotine's sword once belonged to her father, a government agent who passed the sword down to her upon his death. As the sword's current owner, Guillotine can call forth the ghosts of all its past users, which encircle her and her enemies in one, simultaneous attack.

Although revealed for Marvel: Contest of Champions, the development team also revealed a brand-new comic of the same name. Guillotine fights alongside the heroes in the Marvel universe and will eventually be getting her own comic as well. No video demo was available, but Guillotine is available in Marvel: Contest of Champions now on both iOS and Android for you to check out. From what we had a chance to play, she is an up close fighter that is also able to user her sword from a distance and presents a formidable threat for all opponents.
