Remember last week when Nintendo teased a new ARMS character? Well, today it got confirmed - we'll soon be saying 'hello' to Lola Pop.

Announced at Gamescom earlier, Lola Pop is the latest character to join the crew and she's certainly got style. As opposed to the genie attire I thought she was wearing before, this street performing pugilist is a candy-coated clown with three new ARMS and a new stage.

According to the Nintendo blog post, there'll be a stream tomorrow at 10 AM BST showing her off.

Surprisingly the public reaction is almost wholly positive, summing Lola up as either 'super cute', a 'non-scary clown' or with some badass arms to offer.
As for the Global Testpunch, that'll kick off this Friday, August 25th, at 16:00 BST and end on Sunday August 27th at 21:00 BST. So, that's a great time to try out the game if you haven't already.
