Capcom has revealed that it will release Ed as the third post-release character for Street Fighter 6 in February 2024. The company confirmed the new release window—narrowed from Winter 2024—by uploading a new teaser trailer featuring the fighter.
The trailer also shows a glimpse of Ed’s fighting style. He primarily fights with a boxing style, but he can also imbue his punches with Psycho Power. Ed also uses the power to pull his opponent and prevent him from hitting a bystander in the trailer.
The new teaser trailer starring Ed is also available to watch right below:
Ed made his debut in Street Fighter V, just like Rashid who appeared in Street Fighter 6 earlier as the first post-launch character. But while Rashid was part of Street Fighter V‘s 16-character launch roster, Ed joined the previous game’s list as the third Season 2 fighter, the ninth post-release addition, and the twenty-fifth overall character.
Capcom will still add more playable characters to Street Fighter 6 after Ed’s inclusion in February 2024. The company has revealed plans for the series’ staple character Akuma to join the new game’s roster in Spring 2024.
Street Fighter 6 is available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, and PC. Capcom has sold over 3 million units of the game as of January 3, 2024. Ed will appear as the third post-release character in the fighting game in February 2024.
