'Street Fighter X Tekken' Release Date: New Character Reveals (VIDEOS)
Gamers should expect more roster addition announcements for "Street Fighter X Tekken" in the coming months.
In an interview with NowGamer.com, Capcom Community Manager Seth Killian spoke on the game: "We have a few months till release with this game and we plan to announce characters right up to the finish line. The character select screen will be covered with characters, so we have quite a lot still to come including some from "Street Fighter" history that have not been in a game for quite some time, so we want to make both sets of fans happy."
Some forgotten characters from the "Street Fighter" universe include: R. Mika from "Street Fighter Alpha 3," Sean from "Street Fighter 3: Third Strike," Karin from "Street Fighter Alpha 3" and Eagle from "Street Fighter.”
When asked about the final number of confirmed fighters in the game, Killian said: "I do but not one I’m going to share today [laughs]. I think, overall, it’ll be almost impossible to be disappointed with the number of characters in the roster. This is the most robust roster we’ve had for a Street Fighter game. I don’t want to say ever because someone will get me if I say that, but it’s a lot of characters.”
Several followers of "Street Fighter X Tekken" are puzzled by the absence of "Tekken" character Jin in recent trailers. The next round of trailers should reveal this much-requested fighter.
