Well, so far i liked the update.

Plenty of new characters are a good reason to keep in the game.

I opened a 10 pack of soul on 2 devices and got: (not much tested or read about the moves, cause it was getting late last night), just did 1 sot-load, which is not far.

Magus Hellraiser
Sentinel Trickster
Assassin Killer-Dude (or whatever he was called)
Warrior English Guard (nice walking animation though)

I'd like to make a listing of the new characters to keep track:
So far i've seen:
2 Types of police dudes (both magus?)
Some rollergirls (i think, i've seen sentinel, assassin?)
the prison chef (which reminds me of the butcher from diablo)
charlotte
Some assassin rouge girl
Assassin and Warrior Chopper
Assassin and Fatso
Sentinel Trickster
and a lot of more, i've missed
