Who will be the first season 1 character? We’re guessing it’s Happy Chaos, the blue Valentine unit that’s been a thorn in the game’s story mode. Other candidates include Goldlewis Dickinson the giant dude who carries a coffin with an alien inside (allegedly), Asuka (That Man), Jack-O Valentine with red hair, and Jam Kuradoberi based on an alleged datamine.
