Lace up your Converse All-Stars
Sakura Kasugano, the first ofStreet Fighter V’sSeason three characters, will be bringing her scrappy personality to the arena next week, alongside the long-awaited, much-needed,Arcade Editionupdate.
Capcom have also announced that Sakura, her Story mode and her costumes will all be available to try out for free, for one week only. This will let players see what they think of the schoolgirl slugger before putting down their hard-earned Fight Money, (or Real Money).
Sakura will be available to all from January 16 until January 23. All XP and Fight Money earned with her will be removed from your account should you not commit to purchasing the character. It seems a little random for Capcom to do this with just Sakura, so I’m thinking this will be an ongoing marketing gimmick for all future DLC characters.
Street Fighter V: Arcade Editionwill attempt to revamp the 2016 fighter with a host of new modes and options that many believe should have been a part of the game years ago. The update will also bring abalance overhaul of all characters, as well as new V-Skill moves, trials and challenges.
Street Fighter V: Arcade Editionlands on PC and PS4 in North America on January 16. The PS4 physical and digital release isnow delayedin Europe until January 19. But existingSFVownerswillbe able to download the expansion on the 16th.
