All-Star Battle R ★ Wamuu
Wamuu (ワムウ, Wamū) was confirmed for All-Star Battle R during the game's initial announcement trailer.[1] He was also 1 of 15 playable characters during the Evo 2022 Demo in August 5.[3]
Although his moveset remains fundamentally the same as his from All-Star Battle, a few tweaks have been made to both balance the character and fit him into the overall gameplay changes that All-Star Battle R brought along.
As Wamuu's one and only voice actor, debuting in the Battle Tendency anime adaptation and later voicing Wamuu again in All-Star Battle, Akio Otsuka reprises his role in this game as well. As with the majority of the game's roster, voicelines for Wamuu were either added or re-recorded.
