Street Fighter 6 is getting its next DLC fighter next month, and the he psycho-powered boxer Ed is next in line.
Although Ed was first introduced in Street Fighter IV, he didn’t become a playable fighter until Street Fighter V (included in the Season 2 roster of characters). The protege of Balrog sports the same psycho powers that M. Bison wielded, but he thankfully isn’t an evil mastermind. That doesn't make him any less brutal, though, and you can watch him clear a subway car full of Mad Gear gang members in the cinematic trailer below.
Ed joins Street Fighter 6 as the third fighter in the Year 1 character pass alongside the previously released Rashid and A.K.I. (leaving Akuma as the final Year 1 fighter) and will appear in the story-driven World Tour mode too.

Bandai Namco’s fighting sequel, Tekken 8, has debuted at the top of this week’s UK boxed charts.
Tekken 8 launched last week on the back of plenty of excitement and widespread critical acclaim, and the fighter’s sales seem to be reflecting its critical success. In the UK, at least, the game has got off to a remarkably better start than another recent major fighting release.
Ever since this game was announced back in 2021, there has been quite a hype about it. And now, it’s finally going to drop soon. I am talking about GRYPHLINE’s upcoming premium 3D RPG, Ex Astris. The title’s all set to drop on February 27th for mobile devices. You can pre-register for Ex Astris now.
UPDATE
Street Fighter Duel, the Idle RPG, is set to celebrate its first anniversary on February 28. Capcom and Crunchyroll teamed up to release this JRPG last year globally for mobile devices. Now, it’s gearing up for the celebrations and dishing out log-in rewards. Keep reading to know more about the Street Fighter: Duel 1st Anniversary!
Updated on January 25, 2024, by Josh Coulson: The alleged controller listing was posted by someone claiming to be a Play Asia employee. However, it's origin and how much it differs from the controller designs leaked in December mean the image might not be the real deal. It still seems likely we will be getting something to celebrate Elden Ring's second birthday a month from now.
Square Enix has partnered with Fathom Events and Sony Pictures to bring the director's cut of Final Fantasy VII Advent Children to theaters for the first time. Premiering ahead of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth’s launch on February 29, the theatrical sequel to the original Final Fantasy VII will get its first run in U.S. theaters for just two days.
Capcom has released a new teaser trailer for Ed, one of Street Fighter 6’s most hotly anticipated DLC characters.
Capcom has revealed its third post-launch DLC fighter for Street Fighter 6, Ed, set to make his arrival sometime in February. Street Fighter 6 has received exceptionally high praise from the fighting game community after its hugely successful June 2023 launch. The title, which incorporated its first-ever RPG-style single-player World Tour mode, went on to win Best Fighting Game at the 2023 Game Awards over its fierce rival, Mortal Kombat 1.
Street Fighter's bad boy of boxing Ed will join Street Fighter 6 next month.
Collecting video game statues is a very expensive hobby. Whether you're paying the extra for a collector's edition that includes one or forking over hundreds of dollars to buy limited edition ones separately, you need to seriously like a statue's design if you're willing to part with a significant chunk of change to make it a part of your home decor. Suffice to say, Street Fighter's new Chun-Li statue has a lot of fans, and it'll need to be considering how much it costs.
Capcom has released a new teaser trailer for the next addition to the Street Fighter 6 roster. The new character, Ed, focuses on a boxing fighting style, and will be available to players that own either the Street Fighter 6 Year 1 Character Pass, the Ultimate Pass, or the Deluxe or Ultimate Edition of the game. Ed is set for release in February.
