Arkane was one of four
Bison Troopers to be experimented and turned into cyborgs. He has undergone
rigorous physical training. Their mission is to eliminate Guile
and his forces. The other known Bison Troopers are F7, Blade,
and Khyber.
This guys just a
bad Sub-Zero cosplayer (you know
there's always 2 at every comic convention). As if Street Fighter: The Movie wasn't
enough a rip off of Mortal Kombat... they had to put this guy in the game. They
just had to.
Fast forward to 2016: "Whaaat? We get a redesign in 2D art form? Crazy
times we're livin' in." While he didn't actually appear in SFV, it's
cool to have new art of an ancient character that Capcom will never actually
bring back. His new revamped design looks like he could fit into Akatsuki
Blitzkampf.
