Following Rashid and Aki, the next character set to join Street Fighter 6’s roster via DLC is Ed, the boxer who first appeared in Street Fighter 5. His introduction occurs through the World Tour mode rather than a detailed feature presentation. This allows players to witness him in action within Metro City’s subway lines, where he faces off against Shadaloo thugs and demonstrates some of his attacks. Notably, viewers can see Ed utilizing his Psycho Power, particularly his ability to grapple opponents and pull them towards him, akin to Spider-Man using webs. Additionally, Ed sports a new, streetwear-inspired outfit that contrasts sharply with his original attire from Street Fighter 5. Ed will be available next February, providing players ample time to get acquainted with him before the game’s release.
