This week’s Spring update focused on new characters, content and tournaments that’ll be coming to the game, which includes brawlers such as Rose, Oro, and Rival Schools' Akira as a guest star. Rose will land in Street Fighter V on April 19, and her new V-Skill Soul Fortune allows her to either buff herself or debuff an opponent with an arsenal of tarot cards. Other than that, Street Fighter 4 players will find a largely familiar moveset to reacquaint themselves with.

Despite the local passion for the industry being unquestionably…well, passionate, I think we lack a lot of the raw resources and opportunities to set up a scene that can stand toe-to-toe with established giants such as South Korea or the …

When Street Fighter V was released in 2016, it was a little on the anaemic side. With just a handful of characters, very little meaningful single player content and a focus on live service, it wasn’t the hit that Capcom or publisher Sony wanted from one of the world’s most venerated fighting games.
