I'm interested to see who the 4 new characters are gonna be, as well as who the other 6 returning characters are going to be.

Thanks for the info Rico!

It looks like Vega cause of the claw stuff

But it could be that new guy with the dreds

Apparently it's not from a new character but a game mechanic.

Urien, Karin, Oro and Alex are 4 of the returning characters from what I've heard. Evil Sakura is another but I'm not sure if she'll make the first 16. Also Gil in some aspect. Again not sure if playable or boss character.

The SF figures and comics have been pretty reliable thus far. Charlie/Nash is a Gil worker. Not Bison as previously thought.

I want Remy

Older Karin and Sakura FTW

Blanka hate is clearly from those who lose to him often. Blanka is the fastest but weakest of the charge characters

I'd say he's def better than Dee Jay in 4. Just about everyone is. Bison he's 50/50 in my experience. If I can get a knock down, Bison can't do anything but guess and block.

Dee Jay and Bison however destroy Blanka in SF2. I fought Afro Legends Rog a few times in SF2 HD remix using Blanka. It's strait brutal tryna win that match.

When's the SF5 beta again? Are the sf4 PS3 te sticks compatible with the sf5/ps4?

July 23-28 and I heard in a Max video the PS3 sticks won't work for the beta. The 2nd beta or retail release I don't know. Most likely for the retail release since the sticks work for other PS4 games right now.

That’s right; Street Fighter V will be the first iteration in the franchise where it is possible for dedicated players to earn all gameplay related content (such as characters) for free, simply by playing the game. Long gone are the days of forced Super and Ultra upgrades! Enjoy free balance updates as soon as they become available, and find and choose the post-launch characters that you want to get.

Even better than I thought. Extra characters will be DLC but it will reward those who put time into the game by giving them the fight money to purchase it.

MEGATON

Everyone wins as there will be tons of people who will want a character ASAP once it's released and just buy it and there will be others who will grind for it or others who can just buy it outright from having so much in game currency.

And the thing is with in game currency you can get Online Money Matches. I don't know if they'll put that in the game but it would make online tournaments better as theres actual prizes and runbacks will be extra tense and salty too.

Speaking of characters, Street Fighter V will launch with a core roster of 16 playable characters, with 4 of them being brand new fighters to the Street Fighter universe. Post-launch, we will be adding new characters to the roster on a continuous basis, which will provide new content for players to enjoy. Again, every post-launch character released will be earnable for free through gameplay!

This is matching the leaks I posted before exactly from Ken Bogard.
One of the characters is also meant to be Brazilian which will match that new Brazilian stage so not Blanka.

If it was just capcom making this I would laugh at this list , but since it's Sony x capcom I don't see them pulling some bs espically after ultrasf4 on ps4 and people still have a bad taste after tekken x sf
