Players will now have to option to choose a "V-Skill 2" for every character in Street Fighter V: Champion Edition. Each character's new V-Skill will change up their playstyles considerably when selected. To name a few V-Skill 2's: Urien now has his "Indignant Thunder" which resembles his super move projectile from SFIII: 2nd Impact / 3rd Strike. Birdie's V-Skill 2 is called "Chewing Time" which has him using bubble gum to blow a giant bubble at his opponents.

Don't act surprised. The Street Fighter 2 series had a legendary and impactful run in the 90's with numerous title updates... and when the recipe isn't broken, don't fix it. Whether or not you're a fan of Capcom's "direction" with SFV, you have to admit the title improved immensely since its rocky launch. You'd also have to admit that Capcom put solid effort into keeping SFV fresh with great new characters, gameplay enhancements, and content. Perhaps to truly appreciate what SFV brought to the table, you'd have to reflect on the humble beginnings of the series. Seriously, look how far Street Fighter has come. From a nearly unplayable SF1, to SF2 introducing combos existentially and kicking off the competitive boom of the genre. From the beautiful anime art style of Street Fighter Alpha, to the brilliant animation in the masterpiece known as SFIII: 3rd Strike. From the cartoony but competitively revolutionary Street Fighter IV, to the evolving eSports-focused, but also very much fan-servicing... SFV.  If you like the 2D classics better, you can easily go back and play those games. It took several years to develop into what it is now, but Street Fighter V: Champion Edition is packed with content and exiting characters, new and old. One could make the case that certain Street Fighter characters "never looked better" in SFV:CE, and it's true in several cases. From the alternate V-Triggers and V-Skills, to the awesomely redone retro stages, to the diverse roster of 46 characters, to the excellent soundtrack... SFV:CE is a very good fighting game. Is it for everyone? No fighting game is. "But the netcode isn't good," they say. Online certainly has its issues and could be better, but believe it or not, online isn't "everything" when it comes rating and judging a fighting game. There's so much to appreciate in SFV:CE that I'd estimate most of the game's "haters" haven't even seen everything in the game. I personally enjoy the various arcade paths, with so many different endings for some of the game's most old school veterans. The Final Fight and Rival Schools guest characters are also among my favorite aspects of the game. There's many ways to enjoy SFV:CE; from unlocking alternate costumes, colors, and stages, to PC mods, to watching pro players in 100's of awesome events and tournaments SFV headlined over the years! Like all of the other influential prequels of the series, Street Fighter V will be remembered for many (good) things. The 3D animation quality is, bar none, still some of Capcom's best... and among the most charismatic of the fighting genre. Other fighting game developers have tried their own "2.5D" engine, but still seem years behind what Capcom has achieved in SFV. While passionate Capcom and Street Fighter fans might have wanted "more" out of SFV, they shouldn't overlook the fact that SFV still looks (and plays) better than most other 2D fighting games in modern times. Give SFV the respect it deserves already. Like Street Fighter IV... Street Fighter V made some very big strides forward, not only in terms of graphics, animation, and overall quality... but for the community and for fighting games as a whole. SFV was definitely a "leader" and a major success for Capcom in the competitive market for over half a decade! That actually means something... and also paves the way for Street Fighter 6 to have a bright future ahead. ~TFG Webmaster | @Fighters_Gen    Click Here for all Character Renders!                                      Click Here for all Concept Artwork!
