'Street Fighter V': Character Introduction Video Series Continues with F.A.N.G.
Capcom has released the latest installment in its "Street Fighter V" character introduction video series. The video showcases the new "Street Fighter" character F.A.N.G.
The assassin F.A.N.G. was revealed in December 2015. He's part of the terrorist organization Shadaloo and is second in command to M. Bison.
Despite his outlandish appearance, he is a potent fighter. F.A.N.G. uses far-reaching normal attacks and can side step opponents evasively. He also makes use of a series first mechanic, poison.

He makes use of this deadly substance in his signature moves and in both his V Skill and V Trigger moves, as can be seen from the video below. His poison slowly inflicts damage to an opponent and, as such, is a slow killer.
F.A.N.G.'s V Skill is called Nishodoku. With this move, the character releases a slow-moving poison projectile that cannot be blocked. The poison's effect starts immediately on contact.
His V Trigger is called Dokunomu. This is F.A.N.G.'s ultimate defense. When players trigger this move, the character will release a cloud of poison that instantly affects an opponent who comes near him.
F.A.N.G. is best suited for players who want to keep their enemies at a distance, preferably while inducing damage on them as well. Capcom reveals F.A.N.G. is second only to Dalsim, another new "Street Fighter V" character, when it comes to keeping his opponents at bay.
Prior to F.A.N.G., Capcom released introduction videos for Nash, Necalli, Zangief, and Ken. Fans can expect videos for the other characters to be uploaded soon. All 16 "Street Fighter V" characters should have their own introduction video before the title's launch next week.
"Street Fighter V" releases on Tuesday, Feb. 16. It will be available on Sony's PlayStation 4 and PC.
