RISE UP! Street Fighter V on PS4 and PC

[Jyakotu]

All the classic characters are from SF2, so the last spots could be anyone of the classic World Warriors. My guess is Blanka for one spot and Akuma for the other. For characters we haven't see in awhile, notice how it's mainly Alpha characters (FYI, Birdie was in SF1, but many people mistake him from being introduced in SFA, so I'll count him as an Alpha character just to fit the theme). Karin is highly requested, but that doesn't exclude characters like Rose, Dan, Maki, Sakura, or even Sodom. As for the new characters, no telling where Capcom's head is at with the new designs. Necalli didn't really impress me all that much, so it'll be interested to see what the other three bring to the table. I normally main new characters in SF games, so I hope the other three bring something new for me to enjoy.

We should be getting a reveal sometime next week.

Good ol' Infiltration...

New character hint

Majority of people think it's Karin due to the red shoes in the red purse pic

But the Ryu pic seems to also show a icy wind affect, and some think it's a new character. One person pointed this out

Seeing how the Dubai game event and TGS are close, the newbie could be revealed at Dubai while Karin could be revealed at TGS.

Are people denying Blanka because Ono is being too obvious with it? I mean, there are two slots for classic characters left. Ono's first favorite, R. Mika, has already made it into the game. Blanka being in the initial SF5 roster wouldn't be so farfetched.

He could be in, but I doubt he is next based of the teases.

I don't know. I am more excited to learn about new characters, despite my disappointment in Necalli.

Criminal Upper ruse.

I always wondered about that sign. It reads "Eisbahn" by the way, which is German for "ice rink" or "ice track". But what's a sign in German doing in a London train station???

 

[Russian-chiropractic19]

keep in mind we have a place called Schlitterbahn in Texas

Looks to me like a Johnny Cage deal just judging by the billboard.

Schlitterbahn means something like "slippery track". And they even look very German...

But why would you build a chain of German themed waterparks...? XD Ski resorts would be a good fit, but waterparks?
I just read on Wikipedia, they call their tallest and longest water slide "Verrückt" which translates "crazy" in German.

Anyway, the Name "Eisbahn" seems to be the name of the actor, that stars in "Secret Delta The Movie". Maybe it's really a new character. Some kind of movie star like Johnny Cage in Mortal Kombat, who has ice powers, like Sub-Zero also of MK? That would be lame! XD

Well... it looks like the next reveal character is rumored to be Arabian.

I would love if the new Arabian character was female since I would love to see someone like Pullum from SF:EX. But seeing how R.mika was just revealed and how Karin is said to be saved for TGS, they probrably wouldn't reveal 3 females in a row.

If it's a male I hope he is distinct from Shaheen design wise.

 

[Tyaren]

If they want to reveal him in Dubai, I hope/expect, they designed him or her in a tasteful way.

Achmed comes out riding a camel and his v-trigger is starting the timer on his vest. You have to beat him before it goes off or else he loses.

I wouldn't be too worried Dubai is a turist destination so it's probably a bit more open than other places in the Middle East. So unless they do what I just described they should be just fine.

 

[Banana56]

People think it's Pullum now because

- The character is said to be Arabic

- She has tornado moves

- People say they see the character in this pic and that they see her model and ponytail, and they see her effects in the pic below.

I would love if she made it in, but it would be surprising if they'd add an EX character to SF5.

 

[GreatDarkHero]

If that was Pullum... Oh, the reactions...

 

[Doa_Eater]

It's an Arab character named Rashid who has tornado like moves.

New character Rashid:

No decent quality images or trailer yet...
