Street Fighter X Tekken: New Characters Revealed

Street Fighter X Tekken: New Characters Revealed

None

Capcom’s slow reveal of the Street Fighter X Tekken roster cut loose in a big way today, when a new trailer went up alongside two teaser videos. The trailer reveals, even features, Street Fighter’s latest American representative: the portly, yet speedy, Rufus, combating Tekken’s own lard-ball, Bob.

In addition to the corpulent kung-fu expert, the trailer features Zangief, whose own teaser was one of those released today (presumably. It shows his Street Fighter II stage). Other characters appearing in the trailer: Julia Chang, Ken, and Ryu (of course), the action taking place at Marshall Law’s diner.



Not appearing in the trailer, though possibly the subject of the game’s other very pink, red, and white teaser, is Lili of Tekken fame. With these three additions, and the latest trailer, the game’s roster seems to be shaping up in classically eclectic form for a Capcom fighter, heavy on Yoshinori Ono influence. Considering how somber the first cinematic trailer for the game was, this seems to strike a refreshing note.
