New Artwork and Assets from GamesCom 2011

Has there been any release dates confirmed or any speculation about it yet?
It looks amazing already. Gimme some Demos!
 
After careful consideration, I have come to the conclusion that... all of this is great!

Seriously, although I never really cared strongly about Maxi, Tira, or Voldo, they at least look well-designed in this update. There are other characters I’d rather see return (Yoshimitsu & Raphael for example), but I also vastly prefer these three to certain other characters (Lizardman, Seong Mi-na, Talim, for example) so I’ll call it a worthy roster so far. I didn’t get Voldo at all until I saw the spider codpiece... then the outfit made perfect sense:

Imagine his all-fours crawl move! CREEPY/awesome. :-)

I am a big fan of Hilde's character and visual design, although I could never really enjoy her charge-based gameplay. She looks great here too, although as I already said I hope there is at least an option to turn off the helmet (but keep the rest of the 1p outfit). I hope I can actually pick her up in SCV! “FOR OUR HOMELAND” just sold the entire trailer to me. And yes, I can dig a possible Hilde / Siegfried pairing.

The new stages look excellent. Great scenery.

Overall I’m happy. :-)
 
Maxi doesn't look much different, but I'm glad to see he's back. I'm really looking forward to the explanation of why some people look as though the 17 years never happened. Tira look the best. All grown up and even more psychotic-looking. It's shaping up to be a good game.
