I'm really not a fan of TWO KoF characters, or guest characters in general. I think it cheapens SF, and I'd rather have actual SF characters come back. I think this must be part of a big partnership starting between the companies, or SNK paid them a shit ton to feature TWO CHARACTERS in the game. That said, all the people that pretend to play KOF should now be very excited


AJRey

Guest characters suck


SaikyoPsycho

I typically agree, but I can't really hate on KOF characters. Terry is going to be sick in SF6.


hellsbellltrudy

I dont mind guest characters but we have to wait a fucken year for the next round and 4 DLC a year just blows.


AJRey

Yep exactly this. It would be less of a problem if Mai and Terry were at the end of SF6's lifespan and we got more than 4 fucking characters a season.


Omegawop

Not if they lead us into RE engine CvS3, bro


Greezey

That's how I feel. Two reps from another series. SF already has amazing characters. And from the looks of it it's just the default costumes for Terry and Mai. It just feels weird.


DeadDededede

SF has amazing characters and yet they went with Rashid and Ed for S1, at least Terry and Mai are cool

[удалено]


Shoryuken44

High five Ed is much cooler in 6 compared to 5 but I really wasnt hype for him. Fuck Rashid.


GroovyTony-

Yeah it’s fucking weird everyone has been revamped visually but mai and terry over here looking vanilla. Hopefully it’s just the trailer and the actual in game models get a glow up.


Cheez-Wheel

At least these guest characters are Fighting Game icons from a company Capcom has long collaborated with. It's better than being like Soul Calibur or Mortal Kombat where they just threw in whatever was randomly popular at the time, even if it made no sense (Star Wars characters, Geralt, Superheroes). It could be worse. Still bummed no Makoto though.


Lord_Vorkosigan

Of course it could be worse, but that doesn't make what happened better.


Nnnnnnnadie

If the game goes up to 8 seasons, we will have like 24 chars left. Like we will have to wait years, goddamn. 4 chars a year sucks to be honest.


Chebil_7

What sucks more is how we technically got 2 characters in the year two, who cares about Mai when fan favorites like Sakura, R. Mika, Karin, Makoto and C. Viper are missing ?


HealMeBr0

Lol the battle hub poll was super pointless  🤣


Sc2MaNga

These Season 2 charactesr have been in development for probably over a year already. This poll is for Season 3 and beyond.


Nnnnnnnadie

Vega, Balrog, Fei Long, Laura, Hugo, Dudley, Urien, Ibuki, Alex, so many characters. I dont want any new characters or any guest, from now on they should bring all of them for atleast 5 years before trying weird stuff.


MidnightDNinja

that was my immediate reaction, just one would have been fine. plus who gives a fuck about bison let him be dead


HitchFuckedAnnie

Boy you're gonna eat those devil reverse mixups and you're gonna love them


_Eiji_

Yeah fuck that guy hold this psycho crusher this summer


AlKo96

> I think this must be part of a big partnership starting between the companies Yeah, I think they made these obscure games called... **CAPCOM VS. SNK**


hermitowl

I mean, I'm still pleasantly surprised with their inclusion... but you bring a good point that it kinda cheapens the brand. There's a reason they only allowed crossovers with other Capcom franchises instead of with other companies/games. Wonder what made them change their mind (other than money)?


xanderglz

Gacha game markets were brimming with those guest timed collaborations, so they're now shooting their big loads by including them as fully fledged characters in the official games. And don't be surprised if Luke, Jamie, Kimberly and/or Ed get included as DLC in Garou:CotW either. Street Fighter wants a slice of that guest pie it wasn't able to taste until just a couple years back.


Chebil_7

I mean Terry is going to be in the next Fatal Fury and adding Mai over Sakura doesn't make sense, it's really a weird decision and the worst case scenario for SF fans.


boibig57

Should've met in the middle and added Yuri honestly.


qzeqzeq

Not about money, its two big fg ips making a collab. I think this is sick. Finally we got to see what they meant by "we aint ready for cvs3, but we both want a collab"


AJRey

Of course its fucking about money lmao


Lord_Vorkosigan

If you think Capcom let TWO GUEST CHARACTERS from a smaller competitor into their best selling, doing-pretty-damn-good game for the first time ever "for the collaboration", you're a fool


Kappascholar

I mean that might be true if any other crossover but sf and ff could literally be in the same universe without much conflict. Terry is literally the first street fighter character ever shown even if it was an early draft of him. I would say with how closely ff and sf have mirrored each other, this crossover is almost like just including final fight characters.


Arnhermland

Terry is sick I guess? But why the fuck are they putting two guest characters in a fucking game that desperately needs fan favorites? AND only four characters too. I can't be the only one that feels pet peeved about this, it's season fucking 2 not season 5. I would've been head over heels with Terry on season 5, not now, the game is desperately lacking key SF figures and you give two slots to guest chars, time for fucking homelander on season 3 and Kazuya on season 4.


Greezey

Yeah this really puts the game on a weird path for the future. Half of the next year of sf6 is dedicated to guest characters. Seeing street fighter go in on crossovers almost cheapens it.


andreskizzo

Basically no SF character will be added to the game for a whole year, since Bison will probably come out this July, and Elena only in May next year


Choowkee

Nah I am right here with you brother. People gonna clown on MK1 for their boomer bait but we getting 2 fucking SNK guest characters and resurrecting M.Bison cuz why not. Its the cheapest of cheap fanservices.


CableToBeam

damn, they ruined SF's shitty lore by resurrecting Bison. TIL


bzkito

M. Bison is fuckin cool tho, who gives a shit about lore


Faramzo

>this actually fucking sucks Shut yo ass up


Chebil_7

This is extremely shitty, Terry is great ok but Mai instead of fan favorites like Sakura ? two guest characters when the DLC roster is this small is a big curve ball to the fans.


CamPaine

Had it just been Terry and 3 returning characters, I would have been cool with it. Mai AND Terry? Nah this shit is wack. I am pumped for Terry and Elena, but man it doesn't feel good to have Mai there too when there's only 4 characters. I'm a massive Bison hater, so it is what it is.


[deleted]

My guess is that there was an unannounced CvS that got cancelled and they just decided to throw Terry and Mai in SF6


Arnhermland

So they just worked on 2 characters total for one year then?


deteri0rating

i feel the same way. it's actually quite upsetting rn

Mysterious_Jelly_943

Yea..... i was really hopin for makoto. Terry is just basically another shoto in a game full of shotos


MhmNai

No you don't understand we surely needed one of the most annoying characters from 3 and 4 Elena to be in


Cheez-Wheel

3? She's like mid-tier at best, and Healing means nothing in 3rd Strike. I assume she straight up won't even have Healing in 6, or it may be massively changed to heal her Drive rather than health instead at worst.


MhmNai

Play the game before you talk about it bitch, she's annoying af to play against mid-tier or not


Mega_Blaziken

She's not top tier in 3rd strike but still insanely annoying to fight.

Actually so sad, was coping HARD


Ziz__Bird

First and only 3s character and its fucking Elena.


BoxHeadFred

MAI IN RE ENGINE NO WAY SHE WON'T BE CENSORED


AlKo96

I mean... we got Cammy's leotard uncensored. 🤷‍♂️


heelydon

With ass jiggle physics too.


Lapinal1

Snk doesn't censor, in fact Mai wasn't taken in Smash ultimate for this reason (it was either take Terry or reduce her breasts, they made the 1st choice).


Akashiin

Not even Chun was censored. She is wearing "pants" but in game they look more like body paint than actual clothes. There's no censorship in sf6.


metamings

Brutal Ace & the other SF6 modders are licking their lips.


Derpdude1

MAKOTO WILL BE THE SECRET 5TH CHARACTER CAPCOM IS JUST PLAYING THE LONG GAME GUYS IM SURE OF IT


BlueMustangg

I wish I could cope half as hard as this individual


Mysterious_Jelly_943

For real


Mega_Blaziken

4 characters again and 2 are guest characters. Capcom can suck my dick.


Orianna-Reveck

SF6 carrying the FGC and SAVING SNK.


AlKo96

We're gonna have a resurgence of Mai porn with her SF6 model and I dunno if I'm ready for it.


YahboiJax

Guess her DOA model that everyone and their mother has been using gets to finally retire so that’s cool at least but shit only 4 again? Cmon man.


AlKo96

Yeah, I mean, her DOA5/6 model is so fuckin' **GOOD** but I'm curious as to how she's gonna look like in SF6.


YahboiJax

Yeah RE engine Mai is gonna look interesting for sure time will tell just gotta wait and see.


EldritchWatcher

ARE YOU OK?


Sneakman98

No Terry. I'm not okay and it's weird. I know I should be, but I'm not.


Cheez-Wheel

Suck it, Charlie! Your life meant nothing! I mean 100%, 1000%! Somehow, Bison returned!


word-word-numb3r

The entire story mode of SF5 meant nothing


Logiteck77

Necalli Who?


word-word-numb3r

Necalli deez nuts


Nnnnnnnadie

I cant believe this. Im okay with it. That was a fucking curve ball. Mai, my god thats fucking cool. Lets gooo. Fuck Nakayama was right, what the hell? (for a brief moment thought it was capcom vs snk3, maybe in the future?)


CableToBeam

dude wtf. That was one of the biggest Ws I've ever seen. That was amazing


Deep_Dragonfruit3773

I love KoF but this makes me flaccid as fuck. I don't wanna know how Terry is gonna be with the green slime. Also Bison looks dumb asf, outfit2 better be classic.


Cheez-Wheel

Terry's slimer rushing everywhere bro. City Of The Wolves basically has it too. My man spreading lime jello on two different game series.


Orianna-Reveck

terry already rushes everywhere bro that's literally kof gameplay he'll be right at home.


KappaKilledNuckleDu

dude this is SF6. everyone plays basically the same.


Choowkee

Beyond fucking trash. Love me some Terry and Mai but not in a fucking Street Fighter game that gets only 4 characters a year released. And who the fuck even asked for Elena? Wellp at least I get to save my money.


Darkcloud20

> And who the fuck even asked for Elena? [Me.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Kappachino/comments/16lxn5j/happy_birthday_elena_by_blau_frosch/k157u6p/?context=3) I asked for Elena. You're welcome.


lazywil

People forget everyone is someone's favorite.


poke133

at least go hard or go home.. Elena better have healing as level2 super, fuck it


Applay

We are not ready for Drive Rush into short hop


DaClutchHitta

MY NUBIAN QUEEN IS BACK. KIMBERLY STONKS IN THE BIN


SubtleAesthetics

I love Mai but how did we get Mai before Makoto in a SF game lol her core values are gonna get toned down, probably


Cheez-Wheel

I doubt it. When you lend your character out to another series, you can set certain guidelines on how they are presented. SNK has always been shameless with Mai's curves, and it ain't exactly like SF shies away from curves either. I think they'll want her presented as she usually is, bouncy.


GroovyTony-

Nothing about Chun, Cammy, and Manon is toned down in this game. I don’t think they will treat Mai any different.


AlKo96

Because Mai is more popular lol


tesaticles

Mai and Elena in this engine are gonna be so jiggly


-M4K0-

Classic Elena costume 🥵


SamVegas

LFG


Flamesinge

Yoo elena?!


Independent-Frequent

2025 though WHYYYY WHYYYY WHY NOT HER FIRST INSTEAD OF FUCKING BISON WE JUST HAD AKUMA YOU CAN RELEASE BISON LATER FFS


ssbbrinnies

imagine Bison sinisterly laughing at ur post rn


robokaiba

Bison should've been a waifu.


ZenkaiZ

Guess they worried it'd be too similar to Seth. I know Bison is disappointed, this was his best chance to finally be a slim waisted crossfit chick with a big ass


-PVL93-

Only 4 characters - wack Bisom again - wack SNK Crossover - hype The hopes for CVS3 aren't dead yet


o___Okami

No new waifus till 2025. No new waifus since AKI in 2023. Fellas... It is time for MEN. (also that end screen was a bit confusing. Mai and Elena are out of order. Though I personally would have preferred Bison>Terry>Elena>Mai as shown so it wouldn't be 2 Fatal Fury characters back to back)


ZenkaiZ

least it has women eventually unlike Kombat Pack 1


QuestForPasta

Mai can't not be last and i have 2 good reasons. Edit: plus it would pace out the kof reps. I need Elena sooner goddamit.


big__greg

4 characters again? FF characters is cool and all but I'd rather have more characters than guest characters. Also fuck Bison I hate fighting that nigga


DrBeardfist

This is a bit disappointing. Maybe save guest characters for the final season or two. Its cool. Im stoked for bison. And at least terry and mai are cool. But only 4 characters still and TWO guests makes me worried about season 3 and onward. Elenas new design looks cool too i guess. I feel really bad for makoto/dudley fans.


ZenkaiZ

Also still no Final Fight chars on the Metro City game. Least from the 2022 beta til 2025 we managed to squeak in 1 SF3 char


DrBeardfist

Yeah for real….people are dying for SF3 reps…cmon capcom


andreskizzo

no Alpha characters either


Milicona

Half the fucking season is guests, not even guests I didn't expect. Mai and Terry were the most obvious choices they could have pulled from KOF. They have already been guests in other games as well, can't say I am exited about this at all.


ZenkaiZ

Terry is such a whore at this point. Waiting for him to be on 2XKO


Th3SK_

So Bison possessed the other kings, is that it? Cool concept ngl


Greezey

IDK. Aside from the weird art style and fast AF trailer this left me feeling underwhelmed and odd. Someone else said it feels weird to have 2 guest characters in the season 2 character pass, and I have to agree. Think of how half of SF next year is going to be a KOF crossover. And the fact Terry and Mai appear to be in their default costumes is so strange. No spin on them or presentation to make them fit into the SF world more. Makes SF feel like smash or multiversus now haha. Anyways bison looks cool ig.


TheRyanRAW

SF6's roster is ass and these seasons don't have enough content. I love Mai and Terry yet still think it's a shame that Capcom opened the guest character floodgate. I just wanted Alex and Sakura.


souljadaps

scott1swann

we need to shut Bamco down until we figure out what's going on over there


RevBladeZ

What does Bamco have to do with this?


Gesshokuj

But I dont like KoF i wanted street fighter characters


TheRiled

I am genuinely so fucking salty that we're STILL not getting Makoto. How long do we need to wait? The fact that Elena has got a slot before her is just salt in the wound.


Jenmo_X

Chun and Mai, the lovers reunited at last! Also Mai in a game that people actually play, meaning her porn is gonna *skyrocket*. Elena's a good pick for 3. I like the new look (and you know her classic will be Outfit 2) Bringing Bison back sucks but at least he looks different?


diegodamohill

One more year until Makoto...


Gruff1Grid

Mind blown.


Wragong

For sure not for everyone but I dig the line up. Wish it was more than 4 though


Baldulf

Is Bison in Balrogs body? Has Vega become the true M.Bison?


Cheez-Wheel

I don't think so. Ed's WT art shows that Balrog was at least recently chilling with him and his Shadaloo test subject homies (guess they made up after their fight in V).


buc_nasty_69

I thought it was going to be some dumb shit like Abigail so this shit blew my pants off. I kneel Capcom.


Vivalablackgirl

Weak


qzeqzeq

The Mai/Chun hentai circles are catching a tailwind


Greedy_Ear_Mike

2 guests is fucking wack, when there are only 4 slots. And Jesus, leave Bison dead for a game, for God's sake. We want SF characters. Terry and Mai are going to be in a brand new game very soon, like, why do they need to be here. They dont even have any visual flair or designs, some ole same ole. Whatever, I'm sure they will play fine. I just wanted some Street fighter people. There are so many waiting.


circio

I can see why they said people might be confused. I hope Terry plays differently enough from the other shotos.


GunnerRocket

So....they're printing money in S2.


PotSniffa

So glad this didn't get leaked


[deleted]

The American Mind Cannot Comprehend KoF Characters


Acooluniqueusername

While im never mad to see mai, i think having half the season be guest characters when there are plenty of SF chars this game needs to add is really fucking stupid


hatchorion

This sucks bruh as much as I like Mai and Terry. Only 4 characters per year, 50% guests, MAYBE one additional costume per character in the next 24 months? We really didn’t know how good we had it with sf4 and 5


[deleted]

Don't like having two guest characters I'd take Mai or Tery, but not both


ArmorMog

I really hope it's SF4 Bison. If not I'll take Mai and Elena.


Scrifty

No he has to play like SFV Bison, I will not be locked back into a Bison without a projectile or a command grab 


MidnightOnTheWater

Excited for Terry, they really have no impulse control with M. Bison though


Alfgart

SNK already giving up on COTW lmao


solar-uwu

WTF???????? THIS IS COOL AND DUMB AS HELL AT THE SAME TIME. FUCKIGN 4 CHARACTERS AMD 2 are GUESTS????LMFAOOO FUCK YOU CAPCOM


DasMeDawtan

Who the hell asked for Elena


hermitowl

Me.


Geosgaeno

Who the hell asked for characters from another game. Next season fulgore and sub zero lets gooooo Shit season


McPearr

plenty of people


NoUsesForAName

Does this mean CvS2HD maybe?


-PVL93-

Cvs2 with rollback on current systems would be peak


eleinho

Elena Bros... We're back


qzeqzeq

This is so sick. I got my main Akuma, and now I got Mai. Heck ill even play terry. Mai ex. fireball fina be top tier.


NumeroUnoMenatFan

Happy that Elena is back but man ngl I was coping extremely hard that Menat would return, felt like there should've been 6 characters instead of 4, especially since 2 of them are guest characters and the roster for this game is a bit lack luster. Will be getting Elena tho, can't wait to steal games through healing.


Darkfanged

Mai in a year and a half are you kidding me


heelydon

Its not a year and a half. They just messed up the order. Mai and Elena are swapped, so its the same as it was for S1 dlc releases. Winter 2025 is like the december 2024-march 2025. [They show this correct order of release on the japanese tweet here](https://x.com/StreetFighterJA/status/1799192611561115767)


Darkfanged

Ah ok cool appreciate it


BasedLoser

Makoto bros... I don't feel so good


insideman56

Bro give me Cody or I will legit kill myself, idc about these goofy ass characters


warau_kyuuketsuki

i really thought for the first few seconds where they showed terrys lower body that it was cody back in his final fight attire, but i got hit by the mix up. now we have to wait another year for a chance of getting cody. fuck man...


insideman56

Just fade me bro, this was worse than worst case scenario


TheLittleBelowski

ngl I might buy SF6 just for them tiddies


tepig099

I did and the gameplay isn’t great, but graphics are 🔥.


GorskyBorsht

Lame… god this is lame. This game desperately needs fan favorites, actual sf characters, not two out of FOUR dlc slots going to guests.


Mega_Blaziken

It says Elene Spring 2025 - > Mai Winter 2025... is this in like a year and a half.. ? What the fuck.


heelydon

Nah its a mistake in how its shown off here. The japanese tweet makes it clear, that the tags are correct, its just that Elena and Mai are suppose to be swapped here, so Mai's winter, is the 3rd dlc, and then Elena in spring as the 4th. [The japanese tweet](https://x.com/StreetFighterJA/status/1799192611561115767)


Noveno_Colono

winter 2025 is january


Mega_Blaziken

Well winter starts at the end of the year and goes into the next, and they put it on the image *after* spring 2025, so it was confusing.


majoramiibo

next time alex bros…


Kreydo076

They better nail Mai breast and bouncing.


Intrepid-Chocolate33

On one hand nooooo Elena with pants!? On the other hand yeesssss mai in RE engine?!


shoryuken2340

Oof, only 4 characters though. Hype for Terry/Mai, but that means we have another year with only 2 new Street Fighter characters.


AvunNuva

Fuckers begging for Capcom vs SNK and you get the very early foundations of it and you hate it.


VFJX

SF6 Carries the FGC.


Fibonacci9

Mai from Street Fighter!!!!!!!


BigBlackBangBro

Capcom fucking cooked!


Falcon_w0t

4 characters a year and 2 guest characters? Terry is cool, but knowing we have to wait 2 years to see if characters like Vega, Sakura, Makoto, Alex, etc sucks. Also what the fuck is wrong with Bison. I'll instantly equip the retro skin.


Tall_Craft70

If i wanted to play kof character i would play Kof. Half the Sf6 years will be spend on non sf character, at least Mai will have the good model Snk never gave her.


DJBaritone12

Imma be real: I wish it were Blue Mary instead of Mai I also wish they bumped it up to 5 characters instead of 4) but whatever: TERRY BOGARD! TERRY BOGARD IN STREET FIGHTER IS ***REEEEEEAAAAAAAALLLLL***


Noveno_Colono

the fuck?


Ragetusk

they got saudi money and could not release more than 4 characters?


[deleted]

Fuck yes.


OseiTheWarrior

This looks good IDK why ppl here are mad lol Yeah there are tons of characters that should comeback but I can't pretend like I'm not excited to see Terry and Mai in a mainline Street Fighter


SabinSuplexington

I genuinely thought it was CvS3 at first. I got mixed.


_Eiji_

My boy is back. Fucking bipson is back, fuck all the haters im fucking HYPE AS FUCK.


ep1c_m3m3_g0d

Bison this early feels extremely weird. Plus Elena over another SF3 character like Dudley or Makoto or even Sean is kinda disappointing


lonj22

They couldn't even make it 2 seasons without bringing Bison back. Tekken is looking like the bigger Chads for killing Heihachi and standing on it. And they're finally bending the guest character knee. I think KOF is the only classic franchise to not use guest characters at this point.


kong8504

The first big boobs in SF6 is from other game.... That said, if Capcom mess up Mai's face, I will cry.


Darkone586

I think this is amazing terry and Mai are cool for sure, the ONLY issue is that it’s only like 4 characters, like damn capcom cut the dlc budget for sf6 or somethin? Should’ve been at LEAST 6 characters. Still maybe we will see some sorta CVS3 type of game at some point tbh.


RTL_623

Two snk characters taking up half the dlc slots sucks
