Street Fighter V gets a new trailer, featuring Ryu and Ken's origins and the game's tutorial mode.
News"Ponder where you've been and ultimately, where your fist will lead you..."
Even Ryu seems a bit bemused by that particular piece of advice from bearded sage, Gouken. It's one of the more curious moments in the new tutorial videos for Capcom's Street Fighter V, which briefly illustrates the backstory of big-footed fighters Ryu and Ken. The studio aims to make Street Fighter V accessible for newcomers as well as returning experts, so the game will feature a tutorial to help ease tyro fighters into the fray.
You can have a gander at it in the trailer below. Street Fighter V arrives on the Feb. 16 for PC and PlayStation 4.
"Ponder my fist?"
Original Story 11.18.15:
Capcom's venerable punch-fest is returning to our screens next year, marking the first full sequel in the Street Fighter series since 2008's superb Street Fighter IV.
In a YouTube video recorded for the Warner Games Summit, producer Yoshinori Ono has revealed a brand new stage design for Capcom's much-anticipated game. It shows Ryu and Chun Li fighting in front of Brazil's favelas, with makeshift houses reaching up into the leafy mountains in the distance. It's a blink-and-you'll-miss-it snippet really, but it provides a fresh glimpse of the new game's incredibly smooth and detailed character animation.
On the subject of characters, the video soon cuts back to Ono, this time dressed in a Blanka outfit. "But wait," Ono says. "If we have a Brazilian stage in the game, that means... Everyone might have already guessed it, but please look forward to Brazil Game Show. We'll be announcing a new character there!"
Blanka is, of course, originally from Brazil. But if Ono's set to announce a new character at the Brazil Game Show, who is it? A relative of Blanka's, maybe?
The Brazil Game Show takes place between the 8th and the Oct. 12, so we'll update you with the news as it happens.
Street Fighter V is out in March 2016 for PlayStation 4 and PC. We recently went behind closed doors with Street Fighter V at E3 2015. Check out our impressions of the game.
