EVO 2023 was a fantastic stage for Capcom to showcase some exciting new Street Fighter 6 content that had fans cheering and smiling! One of the biggest surprises? A super fun collaboration between Capcom and Paramount, along with Nickelodeon, featuring everyone’s favorite heroes in a half-shell: the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Starting August 8, 2023, players will be able to bring their Street Fighter characters to life by equipping them with new TMNT-themed costumes, emotes, titles, and even stickers for the chat feature. You can also personalize your phone’s wallpaper and camera frames with TMNT flair, and if you really want to go all in, you can transform your avatar into one of the iconic turtles as they explore the World Tour or battle it out in the Battle Hub. This collaboration is just the latest in a string of cool partnerships for Street Fighter 6, following their successful tie-up with Onitsuka Tiger when the game first launched.
But wait, there’s more! During EVO 2023, Capcom also unveiled A.K.I., an exciting new character joining the ranks of Street Fighter 6 as the 20th playable fighter. She’s sure to turn heads with her unique hairstyle inspired by traditional Japanese farmer hats and razor-sharp fingernails that could rival any blade. While we’re still in the dark about her specific combat moves, Capcom promises to share more details on A.K.I.’s gameplay style at a later date. For now, all we can do is imagine she’ll bring an ancient samurai flair to the battlefield!
