It happened last night, on the occasion of Street Fighter V Summer Update 2021, the 5th and final character of Season 5 of Street Fighter 5 was revealed to the general public. Her name ? Luke, a blond, blue-eyed, well-built boxer who promises to have a bright future ahead of him in the Street Fighter saga. Takayuki Nakayama, the game director of the game and Shuhei Matsumoto, the producer, made the official face-to-face presentations, specifying that the number of fighters in the roster therefore amounts to 45 in total. A beautiful figure that has not yet passed the pill with aficionados who strongly criticized the choice of this character. One only has to take a look in the comments on social media, and more specifically on Twitter, to see that Luke has already made enemies. Some criticize Capcom for lacking in diversity and still offering a blond protagonist with blond eyes, while others argue that he looks too much like Steve from Tekken and lacks personality.
While waiting for Luke to be accepted by the community, know that he specializes in fast movements and strong strikes, knowing that we will have more information in the months to come, since his arrival is not planned before. November 2021. Until then, we will be able to have fun with Oro which will be playable from August 16th. Street Fighter III’s Wandering Hermit returns in Street Fighter V and his gameplay was unveiled in a lengthy gameplay session last night as well. This was also the case with Akira Kazama (from the Rival Schools series) who got her focus and she too will make her debut in the series on August 16th.
Small reminder: Oro, Akira and Luke will be available via the Character Pass or the Premium Pass, knowing that the three protagonists can also be purchased separately for cash or 100,000 Fight Money. You know everything.
