I'm fairly certain they're reserving Hrothgals for a fanfest, the question being which one - the US one, because they're the loudest audience, or the JP one for being the most modest.

On one hand, male Hroths were revealed in the latter because they knew how much of a riot the western playerbase would've made at showing burly catmen instead of bunny boys, but this time there's no such controversy so Hrothgals, the "new race," should be front and center to generate hype....

On the other hand, Hrothgars, as a race, have been treated like the unwanted child so I wouldn't be surprised if they're presented as little more than a footnote in the character graphic updates panel
