Capcom premiered its final Street Fighter 6 showcase on April 20, giving us a further look into the fighting game's various H25 สล็อต modes and surprising us with a demo—albeit one that PC gamers have to wait an extra week to play. The game may still be six weeks away but the developer has already unveiled the first four DLC characters who will be added to the roster over the coming year.
Returning characters Rashid, Ed and Akuma are joined by newcomer A.K.I., and will release one by one between this summer and next spring. There's not much else we know about each character right now. They'll be folded into Street Fighter 6's World Tour story mode though, so our custom characters can pick up some of their moves and learn a bit of each one's backstory.
No word on how monetising DLC fighters will work in Street Fighter 6, either. There'll no doubt be winner55 your standard season pass and the option to individually purchase each fighter. Street Fighter 5 had an interesting system, however, where you could (very slowly) grind out a large amount of in-game currency to purchase seasonal characters. You wouldn't be able to nab all five seasons' worth of characters with it, but it was an intriguing alternative to grabbing your wallet.
