Capcom confirmed Cammy and Birdie as playable characters in Street Fighter V during Sony’s E3 2015 press conference this evening.
Here are some details:
Cammy has been a staple of the Street Fighter series since her debut in Super Street Fighter II, and returns faster and stronger than ever before in the upcoming Street Fighter V. Utilizing a wide variety of quick ground and aerial attacks to pressure her opponents, her rush down style will suit offensive minded players of all types.
Birdie makes his long awaited return, having last appeared in the Street Fighter Alpha series over 10 years ago. Completely redesigned and reimagined, Birdie’s “larger than life” look masks the fierce power packed into his long range chain attacks and up-close command grabs, making him a threat from every distance.
Additionally, Capcom announced that the first online beta program for the game will be exclusive to the PlayStation 4 version of the game and run between July 23 and 28. In North America, those who pre-order the game through select retailers or PlayStation Network will gain automatic access to the beta. In Europe and Asia, players can register their interst in the beta at StreetFighter.com.
Finally, Capcom confirmed what it once accidentally confirmed prior: Street Fighter V will launch for PlayStation 4 and PC in spring 2016.
