Within the meantime, now we have improbable concepts for 10 traditional Road Fighter characters that ought to come to Road Fighter 6.
R. Mika
Launched in Road Fighter Alpha 3, Mika turned a enjoyable and likable character that noticed revived reputation when she was reintroduced in Street Fighter V.
Excessive-level Japanese gamers used her competitively to win occasions, and he or she finally needed to be nerfed, sadly, after gamers within the combating recreation neighborhood complained she was a bit on a budget aspect. Her background as a wrestler makes her one of many few grappler-type characters within the recreation, and there aren’t many in SF6. And along with her signature microphone toss and crowd cheering, she’s certain to be turning heads and getting neighborhood reactions– a method or one other.
Alex
Alex debuted as the primary character in Road Fighter III, and for the primary time, Ryu was not on the forefront of the franchise. As a pseudo-grappling character, Alex had some good pokes, albeit a bit sluggish, and the identical slowness plagued his restoration after particular strikes. On the plus aspect, he succeeded at being a brand new sort of character who was not a Shotokan-based fighter.
Sadly, Alex by no means reached prominence in aggressive play and have become considerably forgotten after that. Even in Road Fighter V, Alex gamers have been scarce, however hopefully he will get another likelihood to show himself in SF6 with extra enhancements and new strikes. In any case, he’s placing it down for Workforce America and NYC!
Ibuki
Additionally hailing from Road Fighter II third Strike, Ibuki was a welcome shock to the world of Road Fighter. Ninjas go hand and hand with Japanese tradition, and this feminine ninja had a trendy fashionable twist to her. She offered a mixture of projectiles, quick assaults, good pokes, and complicated particular strikes, making her enjoyable and comparatively aggressive at a excessive stage– for those who might pull off her complicated combos.
Ibuki coming again could be a fantastic concept since there’s additionally an American ninja who can rival her, Kimberly aka Ninjastar. Kimberly is a pupil of Man, one other traditional character that deserves to be on this checklist (and would have been if not for his pupil Kimberly), and he or she would make for a pleasant match and rival to Ibuki in the identical vein as Ken and Ryu. Be looking out, she would possibly immediately seem from out of the leaves and shadows ahead of later…
G
G, the combating president, was deliberate to look in Road Fighter IV, however was delayed after which rejected as a launch character for Road Fighter V. He lastly made his inauguration as a DLC character in SFV, and was designed to be the ultimate boss of the arcade story mode. Though this designation by no means made an affect on the sport’s story mode, he’s usually pictured amongst earlier bosses corresponding to M. Bison/Vega and Gill.
It’s clear that G is impressed by Abraham Lincoln and Uncle Sam, and is similar to different historic figures and combating recreation characters. G brings such a unique dynamic to the franchise each by way of fashion and gameplay mechanics and was acquired by the combating recreation neighborhood. He wants to return again ASAP, in any case, who doesn’t wish to see the self-proclaimed president of the world again within the recreation kicking butt?

Q’s solely playable look has been in Road Fighter III third Strike, and there are followers of the collection that need that to vary. Though, he may be seen within the background of Ken Masters’ stage, on the boat, in Road Fighter II Championship Version.
One of the crucial standout characters of the complete franchise, he has a noir, superhero, robotic detective, and horror vibe to him, and that system has by no means been repeated. His id and story stay a thriller to at the present time and hopefully, Capcom will shed some mild on this shady character in SF6.
Yun
One of the crucial widespread characters from Road Fighter III third Strike, Yun is the unique Chinese language avenue skater with kung-fu prowess. Each he and his brother Yang added an entire new dimension to the franchise and could be good additions regardless that SF6 presently has a brand new drunken-style kung-fu fighter within the type of Jamie Siu, who’s the rival to Luke, the brand new protagonist of the collection from SFV. Jamie can also be the cousin to Yun and Yang, in order that positively results the chance of the unique brothers returning to the sport.
Both means, each of those brothers are distinctive and enjoyable characters, however Yun will get a slight nod over his brother Yang as a result of Road Fighter participant and legend Daigo most well-liked taking part in with Yun and wowed crowds together with his gameplay utilizing the character. Jamie would possibly find yourself being the one character representing household of kung-fu fighters, however Yun and Yang are welcome to skate their means again into the sport anytime.

Presently, there isn’t any boxing-focused character in SF6, and though Ed will probably be seeing a future launch, he may be advanced with extra of his shadow clone and psycho energy attributes. Dudley had a way more balanced transfer set when in comparison with the OG boxer, Balrog/M. Bison, and little question that might carried into a brand new incarnation of the character. In addition to, how will you resist his gentleman handlebar mustache and suspenders?
Karin
Ah, we will’t overlook in regards to the elitist Karin who debuted within the manga collection Road Fighter: Sakura Ganbaru! and have become first playable in Road Fighter Alpha 3.

Whereas in his present older kind, he makes use of new strikes that developed after Bushinryu, that are finest utilized on the medium and much rage. Whereas in his previous kind, he performs equally to Man, with a rushdown and up-close playstyle favored.
