Ruby Rose joins Rivals of Aether's Steam Workshop!

(And I'm part of it!)

RWBY is an anime-styled action fantasy web series created by Monty Oum & Rooster Teeth about young huntsmen & huntresses fighting soulless beasts while protecting the world from a greater threat,

Rivals of Aether is an incredibly fun, fast-paced platform fighting game (think of Super Smash Bros., or Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl as examples) featuring elemental animals. It also has an extensive modding community by Steam Workshop!

Combine those two, and what do you get? RWBY in Rivals, naturally! Ruby seems to be an explosive rushdown character, with her Down Special allowing her to switch between Gravity or Fire Dust bullets - the former has a focus on movement, the other damage. Most of her attacks seem to be derived from BlazBlue Cross Tag's version of Ruby, fitted to be in a platfighter setting. I can tell she's going to be fun to play!

While developing the mod, its creator, MegaNintenBro, had requested the community to submit small sketches of numerous RWBY characters encouraging the main character and series' namesake, so that it may be used in the Workshop's Miiverse stage - and I, was one of the many ones lucky enough to not only have my art featured, but ALSO in the trailer itself. Have a gander below:

Ain't he just a positive little prince? Congratulations to the others who've made their submissions to become a part of this exciting project as well - I know for sure they've spent more effort on theirs than I did heh.

As a lifelong RWBY fan (give or take since 2016) and a fan of platform fighters in general, I can't begin to express how joyous it is to see a fan project that combines the two come out after 2 years in development by a passionate fan! If you're interested, go check the game out on Steam (and I do mean Steam, because the console versions lack the Workshop feature). The game itself costs 20 dollars.

The future of RoosterTeeth, and RWBY at the moment of writing is unclear, but a hopeful one, and it's fan projects like these that help keep the series alive and a reminder as to why its fans watch and love the series. I hope we keep seeing more of these in the future. But for now let's just live, and keep moving forward.
