New Street Fighter 6 news coming from San Diego Comic Con today as new costumes were revealed for the first five roster members: Ryu, Chun-Li, Jamie, Guile, and Luke.
Both Ryu and Chun have blast from the past nostalgia looks as they put on familiar outfits from younger years. Continue on to see what these latest threads look like.
Ryu puts on his Street Fighter 4 outfit with his iconic white gi, red headband, and red gloves. It’s actually only recently that Ryu has at all strayed from this look, donning his master Gouken’s Kasa in his standard Street Fighter 6 look. We can also note that Ryu goes back to his clean shaven face for this outfit.
Chun-Li goes back to her classic Street Fighter 2 outfit as well, putting her spiked bracelets back on her wrists in preparation for the fight. Presenters also noted during the panel that Chun has a classic taunt animation with a hitbox attached to it, reminiscent of her Street Fighter 3 Third Strike days.
Similar to the other two World Warriors, Guile gets rid of his new clothes and puts on his old school air force costume. Panelists noted that his secondary color in this outfit resembles his classic Champion Edition brown scheme color.
Luke puts on shoes in his secondary costume (surely much to the delight of fans on social media who have been noting the newcomer’s barefoot nature) and throws on a yellow jacket, a backwards hat, and deep blue pants.
Jamie is Luke’s rival in SF6, and as such his alternate threads are a bit similar. He too puts on a yellow jacket, but this is more of a vest jacket that does n’t quite reach down to his waist. Developers were especially proud of the Jamie design, noting the following when he was shown.
“Pay close attention to the chain Jamie’s wearing, we put a lot of attention into the details of that. It’s very gaudy, and pretty sick. Hope you all take a look at it and pay attention when he’s available.”
