I'm 99% sure this is just beta footage to show the battle system and does not represent the multiplayer.

But the actual characters were already in the game. This was just a few months before the E3 2014 blowout that had the first hour of the game more or less completely finished. You can already see Elma (or someone who looks a lot like her) in the January 2013 footage, shown over a year before this gameplay demo.

But everything about that video screams: placeholder beta characters.

Just because elma was in the first video, doesn't mean everything shown will carry over to the final product.
