These new characters will be revealed when the magazine goes on sale tomorrow.
Four of these seven new allies have apparently been identified by keen-eyed sources, and I myself might have an idea who the other three are. Click Read More to see who these characters might be.
Who's who?
As far as the colors in the blurred page are concerned, the site might be saying the truth!
The four blurred characters on top are new enemies in the game. I couldn't identify all of them, but I was able to read the katakana for "The World" in one of the mystery enemy characters' profiles, so he's got to be from the .hack series.
Now, from what I can gather from the page below, I'm positive that Zephyr (End of Eternity/Resonance of Fate) is one of the three characters in the left page; I tried to impose Zephyr's old PXZ artwork in certain spot in the page, and he perfectly fits. And judging by the look of the other parts of the page, I'd say that the remaining two ally units might be his teammates Leanbell/Leanne (right) and Vashyron (left). I could also kind of impose Leanbell's old PXZ artwork in the page, but as for Vashyron (who most probably will have a new character artwork), my only hint is the unblurred handgun near the text at the left aside from the colors that I can only associate with him thus far.
Enemies from their game have already appeared in previous in-game screenshots, so I believe they're all confirmed more or less. The next question now is if they'll be shuffled like the other returning characters.
I could be wrong about my two guesses, though; for all we know, they might be characters from Time Crisis instead.
