All-Star Battle R/Ghiaccio

""Dig up the roots and leaves"... I understand the "dig up the roots" part... But what the hell does the "dig up the leaves" part mean?! This phrase is super frustrating! (『根掘り　葉掘り』ってよォ～～『根を掘る』ってのは　わかる………だが「葉掘り」って部分はどういう事だああ～～っ！？この言葉ァ超イラつくぜぇ～～ッ！！)"

Ghiaccio (ギアッチョ) was revealed as a new playable character for on August 24, 2022, during the game's Part 5 Reveal Trailer. However, Ghiaccio was accidentally revealed earlier when a Japanese Youtuber uploaded two videos that showed photos of the back of the game box.

Having neither previously appeared in nor  as a playable character, he has an original moveset based on his appearance in Vento Aureo.

Ghiaccio also once again appears as an explanatory character, this time in the game's "".

In the English versions of All-Star Battle R, Ghiaccio's Stand, White Album, is localized as "White Ice", carried on from its first official usage in.

Ghiaccio's voice actor for the Golden Wind anime, Nobuhiko Okamoto reprises his role in this game, replacing who voiced the character in All-Star Battle and Eyes of Heaven.

Gameplay
Ghiaccio has 950 health and uses the Stand (スタンド) Battle Style. While he does summon and dismiss White Album like other Stand Style characters, he does not summon a separate entity. Instead, Ghiaccio wears his Stand. As such, White Album is not dismissed when Ghiaccio is knocked down while it is active, outside of special knockdowns such as Throws, HHA, or GHA. Also, when wearing White Album, Ghiaccio's movement speed is increased and he can run in both directions. When combined with his strong ability to force opponents to guess how to react on wake-up (vortex), Ghiaccio makes for an effective rushdown character.

Dialogue
Outside of, Ghiaccio has unique interaction dialogue for both his match entrances and victories when facing certain characters.

All-Star Battle Mode
All missions in starring Ghiaccio as either the Player or Enemy, in order of appearance.

Music
Ghiaccio's theme is Freezing Temperatures Can Make The Entire World Stand Still! (超低温は「静止の世界」だ), and can be unlocked in-game by buying it from the Gallery Shop for 1000 G.

Its name is in reference to Ghiaccio saying the exact line "Freezing temperatures can make the entire world stand still!" in Chapter 73 of Vento Aureo while chasing after Guido Mista.
