There's a new trailer for gorgeous 2D fighter Skullgirls doing the rounds, featuring the devilishly powerful character Painwheel.

Painwheel was once a normal schoolgirl who was abducted and experimented upon. She now plays host to two synthetic parasites, called Buer Drive and Gae Bolga. Not too happy about their presence, she draws her power from pain and fury. "Get out of my head!" indeed.

In the vid you'll see Painwheel asserting her aerial dominance via the blades protruding from her back. Screaming her way through a number of brutal special moves and juggles, she looks pretty badass. Sakura she 'aint.

Check out the trailer below. Skullgirls hits PSN early this year.
