During today’s entry in the split Capcom Highlights showcase, Capcom has dropped a particularly hype trailer for Street Fighter 6’s rendition of the iconic Akuma.
The one-and-a-half minute tease shows off a striking and menacing new design for the character, trading in his usual red locks for a stark white mane and having perfected his hulking physique even further.
Owners of the Deluxe or Ultimate Edition of Street Fighter 6, or the Year 1 Character Pass/Ultimate Pass will have access to Akuma when he releases across the World Tour, Battle Hub and Fighting Ground modes in “Autumn 2024.”
Check out the Akuma Teaser Trailer below:
We gave Street Fighter 6 a huge 9/10 in our review when it launched last year, with James saying, “Street Fighter 6 rights the wrongs of its past with multiple modes for every player and strong battle systems like no other. It invites new players into the fold with well implemented, simpler control schemes, without losing sight of the hardcore player. The World Tour mode won’t be for everyone, but Street Fighter 6 stands tall as one of the best fighters Capcom has made.”
