Following the announcement of Street Fighter 6 Season 2, which included the upcoming addition of Terry Bogard and Mai Shiranui from SNK’s roster, Capcom has announced that M. Bison (Vega in his original Japanese name) will be the next DLC character. The first antagonist of the series makes a surprising return as the former Shadaloo boss, who was previously believed to be deceased. Though alive, M. Bison suffers from amnesia and exhibits violent tendencies, still driven by Psycho Power. He now wears a cape and tattered shirt while riding a horse, drawing inspiration for his attire from Raoh, although his original alternate costume will also be available in the game. His move list remains largely unchanged with minor adjustments to his movements.
Shadow Rise: A quick and long-reaching jump followed by two options (Head Press and Devil Reverse). Backfist Combo: A brand new move that allows for the placement of Psycho Mines on opponents. Knee Press Nightmare: Level 1 Super Art, targeted at the opponent’s legs with a series of devastating blows designed to be unstoppable upon initiation. Psycho Punisher: Level 2 Super Art, which launches opponents into the air and follows up with a powerful shockwave after stomping the ground. Unlimited Psycho Crusher: Level 3 Super Art, where M. Bison charges towards his opponent and crushes them onto the ground with overwhelming force.
