Street Fighter 6: Akuma Leak Brings Excitement to Fans

Gamers are thrilled with the roster announced for the latest installment of Street Fighter 6, and Capcom seems to be pleased with the overwhelmingly positive response from fans. However, the excitement was tempered by a series of leaks that forced the studio to confirm the authenticity of the leaked assets.

The leak revealed not only the names of the fighters but also complete character pictures of 22 different combatants, giving fans a glimpse into what they can expect from the game. Leaked footage showcased Ken in-game and a clip of Cammy performing her ultra attack against another Cammy, clad in her new costume.

The leaked artwork for 22 characters started circulating on the internet shortly after the official gameplay trailer was released, suggesting that this may have been Capcom's original plan to reveal the character roster. The three new characters joining Ryu and Luke, who were first shown in SF6's teaser trailer earlier this year, are set to bring a fresh wave of excitement to the game.

In addition to the leaked artwork, master eggs were scattered throughout the rest of the video, confirming the return of Cammy and Guile amongst others. The official trailer for Street Fighter 6 revealed two new fighters, Jaime and Kimberly, as well as the confirmation of Chin-Li's return to the roster.

The trailer gave fans their first real look at what the game would look like, its features, and several of the fighters in the starting roster. However, the leak of Street Fighter 6's character roster earlier this month seemed to bring more information than Capcom had initially intended to share.

Despite the leak, fans are eager to get their hands on the new installment and experience the thrill of fighting with their favorite characters. With the official trailer dropping during PlayStation's State of Play showcase in June, the excitement is building up for the game's release.
