As the Japanese video game developer and publisher is preparing to release “Street Fighter 5,” gamers will be treated to something new in the game. The title is ending with five sequels and as a treat, Capcom is also adding five new characters in the game.

It has already received brand-new characters before and for this year’s release, a totally new face, one that has never appeared in the game before are making their debut.

Screen Rant reported that at least two of the five names are totally new in the game. Thus, it can be said that they are “Street Fighter 5” exclusives who are making their debut this year.

Dan Habiki

Dan Hibiki is already a known character who is coming to “Street Fighter 5.” He first appeared in “Street Fighter Alpha” and was seen again in “Street Fighter 4.” Eurogamer reported that Dan is hitting the final season in February 2021.

"Our first character, Dan, is still planned for this winter and will be released in February,” the outlet quoted game producer Shuhei Matsumoto as saying. “We understand many of you have been waiting patiently for the release of Season 5 and we would like to report we are working on delivering this content to you as quickly as possible."

Rose

Just like Dan, Rose also debuted in “Street Fighter Alpha” and appeared in “Street Fighter 4.”

She is an Italian fortune-teller who fights using a unique form of energy called “Soul Power.”

Oro

Oro first appeared in “Street Fighter 3: New Generation.” His upcoming appearance in “Street Fighter 5” will be his first, since the third sequel, as a playable character. He is considered as one of the most powerful names in the game.
