Four months after introducing their version of Terry Bogard in Street Fighter 6, Capcom is now adding Mai Shiranui to the already impressive roster of the brawler game. While initial images of the kunoichi sparked concerns among fans, they can now appreciate the attention to detail throughout her design. This includes ultra-detailed animations, respect for her move list, the return of techniques from Fatal Fury 3 (such as her spinning fire clones around pillars), her new leather outfit featured in the upcoming Fatal Fury City of the Wolves, and a brand-new ultimate fury created by Capcom’s teams. Clearly, the designers have put in excellent work. Given that Terry Bogard is already considered one of the best characters in Street Fighter 6, Mai Shiranui is likely to be among the most agile and flexible fighters in the game as well. She will be available on February 5th.
