Street Fighter 6’s First New Character Arrives This Month

The Street Fighter 6 roster is expanding this month with a returning fighter from Street Fighter V: Rashid.

If you’ve been looking for something to freshen up your Street Fighter 6 playthrough, a brand new character, Rashid, is arriving on July 24th to do just that (for those with the ultimate edition or fighter pass).

Players will be able to experience high-flying Rashid content across all three game modes, including:

 

World Tour: Meet Rashid in the all-new Street Fighter 6 story mode to learn and apply his moves to your custom avatar’s move set, discover more about his background, and increase your bond with this newest MasterFighting Ground: Rashid hops onto the scene as the 19th playable character, with new and unique moves for players to master
Battle Hub: Players can grab Rashid-related gear, emotes, and more through this month’s “Rashid Arrives!” Fighting Pass

 

Rashid storms onto the scene with new and classic moves characterized by parkour and lightning quick movements, including:

 

Arabian Cyclone: A new special move that performs a spinning kick and conjures up a whirlwind; can be used as a standalone blow, or transitioned into Rolling Assault or Wing Stroke
Arabian Skyhigh: A new double jump move that keeps opponents guessing on where Rashid will land from the air
Super Rashid Kick: Level 1 Super Art that unloads a devastating kick while soaring forward and up through the air
Ysaar: Previously Rashid’s V-Trigger move in Street Fighter™ V, this Level 2 Super Art summons a slow-moving whirlwind projectile that can be used to pressure opponents
Altair: Rashid’s Level 3 Super Art calls forth a tempest that lifts opponents before he rains down on them with a monsoon of powerful blows

 

Be sure to check out all of Rashid’s moves when he’s available in Street Fighter 6 later this month! Rashid will be unlocked for owners of the Deluxe Edition, Ultimate Edition, or Year 1 Character Pass. Players can also try out Rashid for free for one hour with one Rental Fighter ticket, obtainable in the in-game Fighting Pass.

Will you be taking on the challenge when Rashid arrives in Street Fighter 6 on July 24, 2023?
