'Street Fighter 5': Additional Costumes, Stage Coming to the Fighting Game Previewed
New 'Street Fighter V' currently set to be released sometime near the end of April
"Street Fighter V" players can look forward to some significant additions and changes coming to the fighting game before this month is over, as developers revealed just recently.
First off, players can look forward to a new stage being introduced, and this one will take players to Thailand. The new stage may be one that looks somewhat familiar to older fans of the franchise, though its remastered dimensions should make it appealing even to those players who are not looking at it with nostalgia-tinged eyes.
Fans curious to see the new stage can check it out over on Twitter.

Additional looks at the soon-to-be introduced Thailand stage are featured in a recent report from EventHubs.
Next up, developers also revealed that new costumes will be made available.
Chun-Li, Juri and Ryu will be the characters getting new outfits, and it looks these will be based on school uniforms.
It is unclear if more of these school-themed costumes will be released for the other characters inside "Street Fighter V."
The new costumes for Chun-Li, Juri and Ryu have not been given a release window just yet, though more details about them are expected to be revealed in the not too distant future.
In related news, a large balance update is also set to go live for the fighting game before the end of April.
System changes, including one that will affect the V-Reversal, are found in the balance update and there are numerous character-specific adjustments that will be implemented as well. New moves are also found in the update, with Zangief in particular getting three additional attacks, according to an earlier post on the Capcom Unity blog.
"Street Fighter V" players should be able to see how these changes impact the game for themselves in the near future and they may soon do so even while trying out the Thailand stage.
