Street Fighter 6 Is Getting Akuma Next Month

Looks like Street Fighter 6 is getting out of early access according to some players (and maybe Tokido).

Jokes aside, the Capcom 2D fighting game is getting the last character in its Season 1 Pass and it’s a doozy: Akuma/Gouki. He will be available in the game on 22nd May as part of the Season Pass 1. Seems like he still has all of his special moves intact from past iterations; charged fireball, air fireball, demon flip, multi-hitting Shoryuken, dive kick, the works. In fact, his infamous Raging Demon move is a Level 3 Critical Art.

Here are some descriptions of his moves via the PlayStation Blog:

Charged Fireball – His infamous fireball, Gou Hadoken is back, and can be charged up so that a ‘red fireball’ is released instead, giving Akuma more options upon hit or block.

Teleport – Like his previous iterations, Akuma uses Ashura Senku to glide on the battlefield cloaked in shadows. Be wary of using this ability since it can be stopped mid-way by an opponent’s attacks. However, Akuma has honed this move’s vulnerabilities and can now use Oboro Throw during the approach to surprise opponents.

Adamant Flame – Adamant Flame is one of Akuma’s new moves, where he performs a forward thrust engulfed in flames. This move is useful in combos and for exploiting vulnerable opponents due to its long reach. The OD version will wall splat opponents, opening up more opportunities in the corner.

Level 1 Super -Akuma’s Level 1 Super Art is Messatsu Gohado, where he fires a highly concentrated ball of Satsui no Hado. Like most Level 1s, this move is invulnerable on start-up. Akuma has a second Level 1 called Tenma Gozanku where he unleashes the fireball from the air.

Level 2 Super – Empyrean’s End is Akuma’s Level 2 Super Art where he turns the Satsui no Hado into a powerful flame and ignites it within the opponent. Using this move close to the corner will result in a wall splat where Akuma can continue his pressure or damage. Empyrean’s End is also invulnerable on start-up.

Level 3 Super – Akuma’s first Level 3 Super Art is Sip of Calamity, another move that is invulnerable on start-up! He throws opponents on the ground with their face and follows up with a single devastating blow.

Critical Art – Finally, the move you’ve all been waiting for: Shun Goku Satsu or the “Raging Demon.” This second Level 3 Super Art can only be performed when his Vitality is low enough for a Critical Art and can be used to end combos. This time, he allows you to see what happens during the one-second worth of nightmares.

Akuma will be in Street Fighter 6 in 22nd May. Street Fighter 6 is out right now for PC and consoles.
