Street Fighter 6 obviously made an appearance in the final Street 5 of the’EVO 2022 and it was for a bit more than for commentators since we had not one but two characters including a new fighter, as well as a new field.
Street Fighter 6 needs a plumber
No need to make the suspense last since you saw the title of this news and the video had leaked yesterday (and the roster a leaké in any event), Street Fighter 6 confirmed the return of the hugely popular Juri but also the arrival of Kimberly which was teased in the State of Play trailer which had shown the first gameplay footage of the game. post on PlayStation Blog came to tell us more about them.
Kimberly is a disciple of Guy who is therefore inspired by his combat techniques since his goal is to become a ninja. It stands out for its very fast and airy gameplay as well as for loving the 80s, hence its cassette player that always accompanies it. She uses it during her special attacks, just like the paint sprays which join the street art visual inspiration of the game.
For his part, Juri should be very close to his first appearance in Super Street Fighter 4 but with many twists. There are therefore several classic moves but with different effects. We are therefore promised a mix between familiarity and more creativity offered in the gameplay of the character. Just like its design which is that of SSF4 but adapted to the style of the new episode.
Street Fighter 6 will be released in 2023 on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series and PC.
