Story Mode

The SFV Story Expansion is a 3~4 hour experience titled “A Shadow Falls” and will be released at the end of this month as free DLC to all SFV players. The 5 chapter story takes place between Street Fighter IV and Street Fighter III and bridges the events that happen in between the two stories. This is the first time in franchise history that fans will be able to play through this type of cinematic experience in a Street Fighter game.

All 6 characters are playable in Story Mode before release

The next related piece of awesome news: all six DLC characters are fully playable in the story mode. That’s right, in addition to Alex, Guile, and Ibuki, that means that balrog, Urien, and Juri are also playable! The official release of these characters will not be until later in the year, which means everyone will get to play them in advance through this mode. For the DLC characters that haven’t been released at the time the story comes out, those characters shouldn’t be considered final or tournament ready, as they still need to be properly polished and balanced. So, think of this as a free preview of the characters and enjoy playing with them before they get officially released in the other competitive game modes.

Zenny currency is canceled

We have an important announcement regarding the in-game currency system. We will no longer be introducing Zenny to Street Fighter V as a real money currency option. After extensive testing and development, we came to the conclusion that it was not necessary in order to carry out our original vision for the product. Instead, we will be utilizing the PlayStation Store and Steam stores to carry out real money transactions.

Wonder how long before the sjws and feminists get these new costumes etc. removed

New summer outfits found in latest patch



Cammy Premium costume



Juri Alt

Juri will go live on Tuesday, July 26



Cammy, Laura, and Ibuki will each be getting their own Summer alternate outfits, much like the ones already available for Karin, Chun-Li, and R. Mika.







Legendary artist and creator of Chun-Li, Akiman, will be designing new costumes for the first street fighting female.
This costume looks amazing.

Akuma is coming to SFV

All we really see is the new Kanji on his back which is the same as what appeared on Shin Akuma back in Capcom vs. SNK 2. It translates to "god" above "man" or perhaps more accurately "god like."

Akuma will be playable at PlayStation Experience Dec. 3-4th

So season 2 was announced over the weekend and a reveal trailer for Akuma was released, at the end of the trailer 5 more silhouettes where shown for the characters coming with the Season 2 pass. Capcom also said the the 5 characters have not been playable in a Street Fighter game and would be new characters. Not sure how I feel about this but a recent leak showed who those characters might just be:
