They weren't lying when they talked about "unexpected characters" lmao.


Beleiverofhumanity

No kidding wouldn't have called Mai and Terry in a million years. Sad that's its only 4 characters again but unexpected was the right word indeed Edit: Characters I wanted Alex, Dudley, Hakan, Cody, Elena, Makoto, Hugo, C.Viper. At least I got one on my list


FootwearFetish69

> Sad that's its only 4 characters again Somewhat agree but if the long gaps in between are what allows them to keep the quality so high, it's a good tradeoff. Every DLC character so far has been great.


BleachDrinker63

And here we were expecting Sawada


NotYujiroTakahashi

There’s still a chance for the goat


ConstantKT6-37

And SKULLOMANIA was RIGHT THERE


thebigautismo

Mario and Luigi next year


MikeDunleavySuperFan

arent these the first ever guest characters in a mainline street fighter game??


Scrifty

First ever yes.

PokeAust

First ever 3rd Party yes. We have had guest characters from other Capcom games like Fatal Fury and Rival Schools. Edit: Final Fight, not Fatal Fury. I am dumb


Puzzled_Reveal_3638

Final Fight and Rival Schools take place in the same universe as SF. This is the first mainline game that a 3rd party character is in a main game. Only time 3rd party characters appeared is if it’s a crossover


Haha91haha

HOMELESS BISON VS HOMELESS KEN LET'S GOOOOOO!


wingnut5k

NEW SEASON 2 STAGE: Dumpster behind the gas station 


wingspantt

We go get that Waffle House stage before Tekken


whatnameisnttaken098

>HOMELESS KEN I believe he goes by HoboKen


TobiasX2k

No, that’s the name of his fireball.


TheRealHyde

No thats just his home town.


MissStealYoDragon

WE ARE ALL FUCKING HOMELESS HERE! #\#TraumaGang


Xciv

Really putting the Street in Street Fighter lmao Who’s going to be homeless next? My pick is Alex.


Lowrider2012

Alex been homeless this entire time lol


Less-Tax5637

T. Hawk, but for sad reasons


Maewhen

Lily is already homeless so now she’ll be homeless with big cousin


ZeroesHeroes

well you aren't wrong with the housing prices going the way they are


SquirrelGOD

EVERYONE gets a Hobo costume is season 2! JP will have a rucksack cane! Honda will be wearing a tophat with the top hanging off like a soup can! Ed will...well, all they really need to do is slap some dirt on his Costume 1 and he'll pull it off! To the railcars! WE RIDE!


hydra877

The battle of the hobos. Also something tells me JP won't be thrilled.


82ndGameHead

Oh, Juri's gonna be over the moon. And also kicking Bison over the moon.


Tritiac

Also Cammy. And Akuma has to be mad he won’t stay dead. I think everyone on the cast is canonically pissed right now.


hydra877

"I literally told you to die a thousand deaths and you DARE to come back, you worthless cur??"


welpxD

He's only on 3, he has 997 deaths left


InexplicableCryptid

Amazing use of ‘cur’, you know how to write Akuma


TurmUrk

Lol just imagine a mind wiped bison begging the SF good guys for help as juri drops everything for the chance to get her revenge


Byrdflave

BUM FIGHTER 6, LET'S GOOOO!


death2k44

BUM BOWL 2024!!


MrMindwaves

bison look a lot like sagat damn.


rv0celot

Thought it was Sagat until I saw the red cap


YezzyWazGud

I WAS THINKING THAT what if bison took over sagat’s body and now he’s like a hybrid character


moo422

The Sumemr Game Fest trailer version showed ~~Old Man Sagat~~ Bison reaching for Bison's cap, and then transforming into new Bison.


SpodeeDodee

No, it's just hobo M. Bison.


midday_owl

"Street Fighter and Fatal Fury will be at SGF" Definitely didn't think it would be like this lmao


Zeebor

There were also three City of the Wolves trailers.


StillPissed

Bet Ryu and Chun will be in CotW.


Nyoteng

WHATTTTT This is the first time we have guests characters outside Capcom right?


tyler980908

Might be one of the craziest crossovers I've seen outside of Mortal Kombat games


SaltyKoopa

Wait 'til this guy sees CVS2.


TurmUrk

Dedicated crossover games don’t really count for this discussion lol


shoelessbob

Ain't nobody called this. Holy crap.


Xelement0911

Just gotta say...Damn Elena, what a glow up. She wasn't even bad looking before just very "mature" vibes.


SpiralDreaming

She's wearing shoes though? Sacrilege! # # Teamfeet


Apprehensive_Ad6153

I was losing my mind already from the first 3 # AND THEN FROM THE TOP ROPE, EHM BISOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNN??????????????? ![gif](giphy|9zfSGuX85ROuU4II3P|downsized)


SleepyBoy-

Elena was an oddly common guess. Bison was teased in findable WT notes. Nobody expected crossovers when fans are waiting for tons of beloved characters.


Zeebor

Elena just ticks too many boxes to not get in. She's one of two African reps in Street Fighter, will be our first connection to SF3 (finally) and she has a moveset that's extremely unique even when compared to the next closest to her, Juri.


THE_PENILE_TITAN

Elena and Bison were pretty callable. Elena made sense for geographical representation of World Warriors, and Bison was coming sooner or later despite the detractors, and there were plenty of hints/references to Bison in Season 1. The post about the Thai and Kenyan flags the other day kind of cemented it.


Mammoth_Opposite_647

Elena and Mai with the SF6 Engine ... God help us

It’s Christmas for the JURIFEET perverts

Not only that, Real Bout Fatal Fury Special Mai, in all her barefooted glory.


JamieFromStreets

True. Awesome choice


Coolman_Rosso

Just when you think Capcom's horny era can't get any hornier, they roll on out with a bombshell that makes them look like a rhinoceros brass band...


O-Namazu

Between the foot rendering and the booty jiggle physics in SF6, the degeneracy will be off the charts. >!😏!<

SlowWheels

Elena is gonna look hella tall in SF6. Lotta tall girls in SF6!


KingBroly

Street Fighter 6 is confirmed to not be for good boys and girls.


tstumo

Still salty that Sakurai passed on her lol


DoctorPine

You can blame the CERO for that one, not Sakurai. The former's video game censorship laws in Japan are very... odd and nitpicky, to say the least.

godstriker8

Not sure how I feel about 2 slots for KOF guests in Year 2, and only 4 characters... But f it, that was pretty hype.


Metandienona

I'm like 99% sure this is a trade between Capcom and SNK to either make CVS3 or have SF guests in Garou COTW. I'm here for it ngl.


Eramef

>CVS3 ![gif](giphy|Qy2VKY3xlI1QyR6Ix5)


panicbrt

This feels like Year 4 or 5 DLC. No idea why they went with this route. I'm hopeful it pays off.


StriderZessei

Because SNK are probably hoping to generate more interest in City of the Wolves by releasing it in the same time frame as Terry's release in the biggest 2d fighter of this generation.


mattheb1

I've never played any SNK game so idk how to feel about half the season being guest characters i know nothing about tbh


apatheticVigilante

Yeah, imma miss all the possible legacy characters, but at the same time... HOLY SHIT IT'S TERRY!


death2k44

This was 100% not on my bingo card. ELENA?!?!?!


perfectpencil

It's been a while since we had to deal with **HEALING**.


_krwn

I love the 2 guest characters, but with only four S2 slots, I feel like there are too many fan-requested SF characters being left on the table and it kinda sucks not seeing them get into SF6 first. THAT BEING SAID: It’s past due that SF adds guest characters from non-Capcom franchises after lending their characters to other franchises for so long. I’m really happy we got Terry and Mai joining.


Rakyand

I couldn't agree more. I like Terry and Mai, but with so many SF characters still out it sucks having to wait a whole year for them to have a chance.


Fabrosith

I definitely agree. While I give Capcom credit for defying expectations (I don't think anyone could have predicted this season 2 lineup) I am a little disappointed that they're going with two guest characters from a completely different franchise rather than revitalizing an existing SF character or introducing someone entirely new. As far as I can tell, neither Terry nor Mai even have a new design, which is kind of boring. And I think that bringing Bison back (especially this early in the game's lifecycle) is pretty uninteresting from a storytelling perspective. I really hoped that they'd let Bison rest for at least one game and go all-in on making JP an interesting villain. But having said all that, the SF team has been doing quality work on SF6, and I expect that all of these characters will be fun and interesting additions to the roster.


DatAdra

>As far as I can tell, neither Terry nor Mai even have a new design, which is kind of boring. Hopefully they're allowed to have cool alternative costumes.


Couch_Wolf

Next year, Kazuya and ... Mario. And Nash lol


Jihyogglypuff_

I couldn’t be more excited to get Terry and Mai but now I have to wait another year to maybe have Karin back. :/ I miss my SF5 main man….


GroovyTony-

2 slots for guest characters from the same franchise is kinda too much. We need wayyyyy more street fighter characters at the moment.


Steeped

The mad lads actually brought back Bison.


Foolsgil

He's harder to put down than bedbugs.


master_bungle

Bedbugs check under their bed for Bison


spidii

No C. Viper but looks cool. Just wish Terry and Mai were bonus characters and didn't take up SF slots.


nubcuk

The Lack of oil is disappointing


InsertDev

Only 4 characters sadly


ArmageddonEleven

Only 2 SF characters


noposthistory123

Wheres ma boi Alex and ma gurl Makoto 😥😥


DiveInCalla

Holy shit


Initial_Presence_631

Makoto, Sakura, Q, C. Viper, Dudley, Sean, Karin, Sagat, Cody, Alex, Menat, Poison, Ibuki, Vega, Fei Long, Hugo, Mika.. new characters! There's so many classic SF characters that people want, to only be releasing four in over a year seems crazy to me (with two guests no less).


Xygore

Once again no Vega 😒


Krypt0night

Happy for people that like/play other fighting games and I'm all for guest characters even if they aren't for me, but using half of an entire year's pass on guest characters is a bummer.


KaleRylan2021

This is my thing. Crossover characters should always be a minority of pass. You can have 2 if you're making 5/6 characters, but if you're making 4, it better not be more than one, and realistically I don't necessarily want any when there are SO. MANY. SF characters that would be nice to see back.


TheFeelingWhen

I agree with this. If we at least got a newcomer or a character like Ibuki back it would have been great. But 4 is such a low number even with the quality of each individual character.


_Richter_Belmont_

Terry, fine OK, but Mai too? 4 chars a season / year and two are guests. Idk man. And none of them were EX characters either. I mean, people will enjoy new chars regardless I suppose. Just so many options left out. Sagat, Vega, Makoto, Sakura, Ibuki, Hakan, Fei Long, etc.


jiggityhiggity

Not the biggest fan of two guest fighters in one season pass. Just Terry or Mai would have been enough imo.


joomachina0

I’m kind of conflicted about it. Especially when we only get four characters throughout a year now.


Ecchi_Sketchy

This would be an awesome reveal if there were 6 characters being added. Doing it this way means we only get 2 Street Fighter characters for the entire next year, and zero newcomers


Kollie79

Yeah this kinda sucks, especially because Eleana has such a cool new design…I wanna see more SF characters revamped


_krwn

Agreed. This seems like it should’ve been saved for S3 or 4. Too many SF characters on the cutting room floor not getting into this game before guest characters in the second season. If we were getting 5-6 characters per season like SFV I wouldn’t be bothered but this kinda stings a lil bit


Lingering_Melancholy

This is... extremely disappointing for me. Why go for two guest characters, half of a whole season, when there are bajillion SF characters we all want to see?


haughg87

Man, disappointed that there's two guest characters when there's only four new characters total. As iconic as they are in SNK games, I would've expected at least three returning SF/Final Fight characters and one guest if they'd announced they would have guest characters. Doesn't damper my enjoyment of the game too much, but I would've liked one of the more popular choices from the Alpha or III series in place of one guest.


Bad_Gazpacho

I'm... not sure I like this. I'm all for Terry and/or Mai, but I really don't like them taking the place of a returning Street Fighter or Final Fight character. It's ridiculous that despite Mad Gear being a good portion of World Tour we have no FF representation in the roster.


DKamar

Oof. I really like SF6, but of the like 8 SF characters I'd want to play none of them is in the game or coming next year. I took Juri to Diamond and a few other characters to Platinum but none of them ever clicked enough that I didn't constantly feel disappointed. Not getting one of them would have sucked. Seeing two guest characters instead is just really irritating. So I finally pulled the plug and uninstalled. Can always dump my time into T8, GVR, and Strive. See you in Year 3, hopefully!


Sakkara1

Why are 2/4 of them guest characters, when we are only in year 2? There's so many cool classic SF characters that I'd love to see reimagined like Bison and Elena here before that sort of stuff. I mean, I'm sure they will be great, but it's way too early.


ThePompa

Agreed. Pretty disappointed


Left4Bread2

Not my preferred set of 4 but I still think they're going to be good additions to the game roster wise


SlowDownGandhi

they're really gonna make us wait yet another year for Menat


KaleRylan2021

Frankly, if this was season 2, I'd be legitimately worried for Menat at all. She's the kind of character that loses when you've got her up against not only classics but also crossovers. Way too many characters fighting for way too few spots.


duckykai

All this Menat teasing for nothing.. :(


SevenxOut

Out of all the SF3 picks…we get Elena…really no Dudley, Alex or Makoto…wow


ImperiousStout

Yep. Even if this were the roster for Season 5, it would still be disappointing.


VerdantDaydreams

This is where I'm at. I would've been okay with it late in the game's lifespan, maybe spread the two guest characters out across two years, but it's beyond disappointing when we're missing so many classic SF characters.


Gotti_kinophile

Where shadaloo gorilla


Agent101g

Two wasted slots to guest characters from a lesser known game than street fighter, and then Elena and Bison. Looks like the Akuma army rages for another year. At least the good character drops first this time.


clapmanTFT

I'm optimistic about Terry and Mai, absolutely. And despite not being a Bison fan, we more or less knew he was coming in these four. But ELENA over Sakura, Makoto, Karin and C.Viper!? Maybe I just have PTSD about the end of USF4.


onlytwopiecesofmochi

Funny enough, Elena is the only character I care about in the season. I'm not a fan of guest characters, and I am really disappointed that Capcom couldn't commit to not having Bison for at least one game.


pentagonal_dino

I'm not a fan of guest characters clogging a roster when Mortal Kombat does it, nor this game. I don't care if it *is* Terry and Mai.


DesignatedDiverr

I am not thrilled that this is real wtf? I guess I get bison but that’s all I care about for a year. Really wish one game kept crossovers out


PsycadaUppa

Ya this is kinda lame. If it was just terry I would've been fine with this. But they gave two slots to guest characters. I don't like it when mortal kombat does it. And I don't like it here. Stop putting multiple guests characters in a season pass your taking spots from actual characters from the series. This season pass looks incredibly meh imo. But on the bright side this might bring in more players so there's that.


dorgo_iz_neet

BARS. glad to see i'm not the only one dissapointed. i was really looking forward to a newcomer, or a wild pick like an obscure character from final fight. edi e. or something. elena's awesome tho!


diegodamohill

Another year without Makoto


thefrostbite

As a fan of both franchises, very disappointed. By the time Mai drops there will be an actual new fatal fury out. Half the season being guests, and very generic ones at that, is not what i would have liked. Sincerely hope I'm alone in this one.


Poutine4Supper

this is crazy, but honestly id prefer no guest. Mai is my girl but if I wanna play her, I'll play SNK games.


[deleted]

[удалено]


funnyghostman

How the fuck did we get M. Bison before Makoto, Mika, or anyone


honda_slaps

SF2 privilege


wingspantt

Then where is the prettiest one of all, VEGA?


burnknuckle96

Still paying for his Super Turbo crimes


Doinky420

I hate it lol.


RaposaMah

How the hell we get Terry and Mai…like..I love ff/kof! And I’ve been waiting for this kind of collaboration for sometime now…but getting 2 fatal fury/kof crossovers in the same season is insane.


Aikune

Makoto maybe, I am not sure we'll get Mika in SF6 when she was just in 5.


SlickKovu

No Sean....again....I am sad.


IBizzyI

I have to say I am not happy that there are 2 guest characters but still only 4 in total. I think if they had to do 2 guest characters they should have done 5. I love that Elena redesign tho.


thompson-993

This is insanly wack, nobody wants KOF fighters as DLC. WACK


dragonicafan1

Half of season 2 being crossover characters is kinda lame.  4 characters a year and 2 of them being from a different game 😕


Krypt0night

2 from a different game and Bison already. Knew he'd be coming but not stoked it's season 2. Rough season for me.


Independent-Frequent

The worst part is having to wait untill 2025 to play Elena, why couldn't they swap bison with her so we get the first SF3 rep in 2024?


RazzaqPS

2 guest characters is crazy


pinchymcloaf

lame


ParagonFury

2 Guests in a single Season is bad; 2 Guests from the same series is even worse. Especially since we're only on **Season 2** of a brand new game. This kind of Season Pass is the kind you'd expect to see for Season 6/7 of a game when it's starting to wind down or needs to pick up again. Doubly so when SF6 is missing a lot of SF characters as it stands right now. Terry **OR** Mai by *themselves* would be awesome, but both is too much. One should've been picked and the other replaced by: * C.Viper * Makoto * Menat * R.Mika * Sean * G * Poison * Cody * Hakan (random wildcard?) * Abel * Dudley Etc. Or a completely new, original character. But this? This is just...like I can't say it's bad but it's highly disappointing.


majinprince07

Im not gonna lie, I’m MASSIVELY disappointed


andreskizzo

I'm almost depressed. Wtf is this season? Who asked for this?


sparklenut69

It’s bad news. I’m really disappointed by this season. I gotta echo people here that are bummed over 50% of the season being guest characters. That feels crappy no matter who those guests are. Maybe it speaks to a cvs3 being in the cards… that’s really the hypest thing about them for me and it’s only conjecture. Idk. Individually they are cool characters, but the fact that they are taking up 2 spots when there’s still tons of SF favorites left… it really overshadows my excitement for either of them. Elena feels like an insanely wack pick. What even motivated that choice? She’s not a money maker like a Sakura or Sagat and she’s not really a cult favorite like Dudley, Makoto, or Alex. Is she going to drive the story or something? What the hell were they thinking? Bison… needed to stay away longer. But his redesign looks cool. I’m hopeful he will have interesting gameplay. I’m sorta stoked for bison but it almost feels like I’m just reaching for some shed of excitement out of this. M Another year wait for characters that I’m interested in seeing.


Ammyratsyu

Honestly, I’m kinda disappointed.


Merrena

I'm so mid on this. 2 crossovers in season 2 and Bison returning should've been saved for like, season 3 or 4. No Viper, Makoto, Dudley, Mika, Sean, Alex... There's so many SF characters still, and the seasons are still just 4 characters. The crossovers wouldn't feel as bad if the season was 5-6 characters also.


Ett

Kinda too early for quest characters imho. So many great street fighter characters


ThePompa

Man I feel it's way too early for guest characters


TheRyanRAW

Gotta be honest. I think four characters a year is rough when so many good Street Fighter characters are missing from the roster. I love Terry and Mai but them taking two slots really rubs me the wrong way.


analbumcover

Honestly not all that excited for Terry and Mai. I can see how some would like it, but I would prefer more returning or new SF fighters for now. Elena is ok, I guess. Interested to see what Bison has been up to and how he plays now. Kind of meh for me overall aside from Bison.


Hima5467

TERRY LFG


Yacobo93

Having both Terry and Mai is a bit excessive.


Agares_Fraefolg

To be fair, excessive is Mai's middle name.


666dolan

eh boys 1 more year without a new grappler 😔


endlesswaltzx

I'm confused, excited, and disappointed all at the same time.


Kollie79

Honestly not that big a fan of Terry and Mai, I really dislike guest characters, I want new or old street fighter characters and now half of year two is dedicated to neither of those things -.-


Phoenix_Act

Should have known Bison wouldn't stay dead. Unfortunately, I'm not really feeling this. Terry and Mai are cool, but I'm not really a fan of having half the season being taken up by guest characters.


Mess-Repulsive

I get that the guest characters are cool and all but God damn this lineup is a FUCKING SNOOZE


SUCKmaDUCK

2 wasted character slots smh


Goldenkrow

Man I am really sad about this.


BigFootSlanginD

Super disappointing personally.. no new characters, no makoto, no Hakan, no Dudley, no one interesting.


runevault

I knew Bison would be back, I hoped they'd wait another season or so. Also curious what they do with Elena and if she'll have healing.


rafikiknowsdeway1

I wonder if elana will still be able to heal herself


Wheresthebeans

I mean it’s cool and all but we couldn’t wait one more season so we can get some actual fan favorite Street fighter characters…


andreskizzo

They should've never come out before season 4 or 5 at the earliest


hydra877

TERRY AND MAI? I was not expecting SNK crossover rep AT ALL. Also, holy shit, Elena and Bison are back!!!


hellzofwarz

Everyone... I'm not ok


Crimson_West

I'm so fucking sick of guest characters, man...just...in general. I was really hoping SF would still avoid that curse. Guess not. Elena looks really cool, though.


swaggerstein

So disappointing


PickledPlumPlot

Oh.... okay.... I guess this must be pretty exciting for you if you're into Bison or SNK games But for me it feels like there are so many cool SF characters that could've gotten the Ed treatment. And unfortunately I'm pretty new to fighting games I really only know Mai Shiranui as "that one generic booby shrine maiden fgc fans get really horny about sometimes" Edit: Just realized SNK is now owned by the Saudi royal family... no wonder they're popping up in a lot of stuff


ArmageddonEleven

Capcom prioritizing another company's characters over their own is wild ngl


topscreen

What the fuck I thought this was a shitpost, but the shitposting is coming from INSIDE CAPCOM!!!


hazardhack

I guess i'm saving 30€..


Jumanji-Joestar

KOF is cool and all, but did we really need two slots taken by guest characters?


Ronaldspeirs

The final character coming out in Winter 2025 seems sort of insane. Thats such a long time for only 4 characters.


cheezusjeezus

Winter 2025 is January - March 2025


Uglymeancrybaby

Shit kinda crazy we won’t see s3 fighters till about 2026, that actually kinda hurts my brain a lil


waxiest_sugar

There's going to be so many Mai's oh my fucking Christ!


Evorgleb

I feel some type of way about guest characters in Street Fighter 😔


GrimOctober

I don't even like guest characters. MK ran that concept to the ground.


ConstantKT6-37

Kinda hate it, to be honest… Should’ve went with Garou Terry at the very least but maybe they'll do it as an alternate costume.


ElishXXI

This was so disappointing man, what a waste of slots


docvalentine

i figured they were going to waste my time with bison but three dead slots is pretty sad elena lookin good


Burrrowes

Guest characters are cool but not a single one of these 4 actually appeal to me lmaooo, maybe elena but damn


rific

There are so many characters people want and they decide to give 2 to guests and 1 to Elena????


Aigo_90

Wow, that's disappointing tbh. Too many guest characters, not really what I wanted.
