Q: "Do you know when they will confirm the other planeswalker?"
A: "I’m not sure. I will give you guys one hint. She shows up in the Return to Ravnica video we previewed at the PAX party (and I’m assuming is now available online)."
So, I've perused the video and the most likely art to me in that video is the gorgon in the Golgari segment. Her art looks walker-workable, as opposed to other ladies in the trailer.
I am sorry that I don't have more info, but Golgari players will rejoice, surely.

I wouldn't take this as confirmation. While the gorgon's art does resemble a planeswalker, planeswalkers are also often shown on the arts of other cards, like Garruk in Triumph of Ferocity or Sorin on Vampiric Fury. And MaRo didn't say "her art shows up in the trailer," he said "she shows up in the trailer."
So she could technically be any female character shown in the trailer. However, I do agree that she's probably the gorgon. And I'm totally on board with this, because gorgons are awesome.

Look at me! I can bold words and use CAPSLOCK to emphasize my point! Hopefully I can trick people into ignoring that I completely have no evidence in my post to back up my claims if I make it look fancy enough.
Very slim chances its the woman staring at the wooden face or even slimmer chance its the woman down below in the Rakdos rope walker scene. Gorgon Girl is a hit.
The Ravnica books say Ludmilla is the last Gorgon. Of course, the Ravnica books also say that dragons are gone, and we all know how that [CARD="Hunted Dragon"]turned out.
I personally don't think the walker is Ludmilla, because MaRo said the walker was somebody we hadn't met before. However, if it is Ludmilla, I will be very happy that they picked up that old plotline.
Also, there's a gorgon mentioned in the newest Uncharted Realms. Coincidence?;)

The main plansewalkers show up on other cards. Many minor ones (Tibalt, Tamiyo, Nissa, etc) don't. Besides, if she has, it hasn't been spoiled.
To me, it looks more like a regular creature, but who knows?

There's always gatecrash for Kiora.
Looks to be gorgon lady for sure. I'm a little annoyed that Ral Zarek did not make an appearance, especially because the non-Izzet blue Jace stealing the limelight with his teenage angst
I was actually thinking the same thing: the next planeswalker is going to be female, the current confirmed one, Jace is affiliated with the Izzet, so it would make sense for the other 'walker to be diametrically opposed to Mr. Beleren (and Golgari has been established as the "opposite" guild to the Izzet via the Duel Decks). Jace 4.0 and the potential Gorgon Planeswalker would fit nicely as cards to suggest for inclusion in those duel decks; you know how the inserts in the precons and event decks say "for more power, try adding *this* card to your deck to really bring the pain".
Of course, this is just speculation for the time being, but it makes sense to me.

Agreed, I'm not really digging the PW vibe for the block so far-
Jace is of questionable quality, and Dreadbore makes them a bigger gamble
Kind of Ironic, considering Ravnica is a hub of Planeswalkers.
Maybe Sinker will be an all-Planeswalker set

Huh, according to the wiki, Ludmilla (one of the three Sisters of Stone Death) is the last surviving Gorgon on the plane. Meaning either this new PW is her, the gorgon shown isn't from Ravnica, or that the gorgon race has been making a resurgence (much like the dragons).

In Shards of Alara, all the new Planeswalkers got arts on the Ultimatums, and in Alara Reborn Elspeth got art on Ardent Plea. Hell, Nicol Bolas got an art reference (Albeit an ambiguous one) before he even had a planeswalker card!
I believe it is definitely the gorgon. The flavor article last week pretty much showed that when the gorgon in it "disappeared." I would bet her spark ignited during the prison brawl at the end of the article.
someday I'll get this wurm out on turn five, and I will finally be recognized as the man who wasted a lot of time and effort to prove some people wrong on the internet. it will be a glorious day.

Sold. Ludmilla, Sister of Stone Death. Spark one up.
Very surprised if it ends up being a GB walker, seeing as how we had a GB walker (and so many other black walkers) in Innistrad block. I truly expected a Selesnya walker (as that's a color combo that hasn't shown up yet on a walker and doesn't clash with Jace's blue), yet it's looking like I will be disappointed.
Not really. Ulasht wasn't actually a character in the storyline, just a random legendary creature made for the purpose of filling that card slot. Ludmilla was actually a relevant sotryline character and as far as where the story left off there is no reason for her not to be alive.

It's already confirmed to be a girl
Based on the ART style (very Llorwyn 5) and full frame I would say this is the ONLY possibility.

Bottom right; you can see his white hair and dark skin right next to the guy with the frilly collar.
And yes, that is Sorin. This article confirms as much.
