Capcom’s final character for Year 1 of Street Fighter 6 has been revealed, and it’s none other than Akuma! The demonic character will enter the roster this Spring 2024, and we even got a teaser trailer (no gameplay) showing off his strength.

Messatsu! The legendary Akuma will consume all hope, fear, and nothingness when he comes to Street Fighter 6 this spring. Find him in the new World Tour area, Gokuento, where you may ask him to be your Master…if you dare.

Owners of the Street Fighter 6 Deluxe and Ultimate Deluxe Edition or the Year 1 Character Pass and Ultimate Pass will obtain Akuma when the character’s available.

In case you didn’t know, Ed was released two weeks ago also as part of the Year 1 content plan. Akuma’s launch signals the end of Year 1, though we should be hearing news about Year 2 as we get nearer Spring 2024.
