Guilty Gear Strive Version 1.07 patch notes: Make way for Goldlewis
Published , by TJ Denzer
This week is a big one for Guilty Gear Strive. The first DLC character in the Season Pass 1 lineup, Goldlewis Dickinson, has arrived for pass holders and will be available very shortly for pickup and play by everyone else. Goldlewis Dickinson and his cryptid coffin take up a lot of space, but they’re not the only arrival in the game this week. Guilty Gear Strive Version 1.07 just launched and with it comes a set of fixes and updates around the board for the game. From characters changes to network tweaks, you’ll find the patch notes right here.
Guilty Gear Strive Version 1.07 patch notes
Guilty Gear Strive Version 1.07 launched for PS4, PS5, and PC via Steam on July 27, 2021, and patch notes came out alongside the update on the Guilty Gear Strive website. The headliner of these patch notes is obviously Goldlewis Dickinson - the first DLC character of Season Pass 1. He's playable for pass holders as of July 27 and will be available to non-pass players who purchase him on July 30 on PS4/PS5 (he’ll be buyable on July 27 on Steam). You can see his trailer below or check out our breakdown of him in Cortex.
