The second downloadable character for Skullgirls is now complete and released to the public. Big Band, who takes several fighting and visual cues from Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike's Q along with various others, joins Squigly and the original cast as the first male character in the game. He had previously only been playable in the ongoing Skullgirls beta test on Steam.

Along with Big Band, this Skullgirls update includes a new story mode, "complete character tutorials," and a brand new stage.

Owners of Skullgirls will be receiving the character including those on Xbox 360. Players can update the game to Skullgirls Encore through a mandatory update as well as a compatibility pack featuring all of the current changes and additions to the game (Directions: 1, 2).
