Despite these recent discoveries about “Street Fighter 5”, fans of Capcom‘s fighting game are suggested to take all these with a grain of salt. The total roster will consist of 22 characters by the start of 2017. Other playable characters in the roster that have officially been announced include Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, Nash, M. Bison, Cammy, Birdie, Vega, Karin Kanzuki, Necalli, Rainbow Mika, Zangief, Laura, and Rashid.

But besides the Dhalsim reveal trailer, Capcom has finally given a confirmed release date for Street Fighter V.
Obviously, you can also just buy the new characters as well with good ‘ol fashioned cash. Players can also bypass the fight money using cash money. A new character will appear roughly every two months and all of them will be obtainable for free with Fight Money, Street Fighter V’s in-game currency. What’s more, Capcom intends on supporting SFV with no less than six DLC characters to be released throughout next year.
We’ve known Street Fighter V would be coming in the spring of 2016. That’s no longer the case, as new characters will be introduced more regularly without the need for a brand new game.
The goal of the Fight Money system is to reward players who stay engaged with Street Fighter V over time. Doing this will get them Fight Money each time. Now, Capcom is preparing for itself a special place in the PR Hell by announcing that it will add microtransactions to the game.

Of course, Street Fighter V is notable because Sony has inked a deal with Capcom that will ensure the game does not end up on Xbox One. Dhalsim also has a few rather handy “zen-like” moves as he meditates in the air and suddenly jumps from one place to another.
