That is great news, never would’ve though we’d get more characters, especially Karin.

Also great to hear Rival Schools will be returning. Can’t wait to see more

Hopefully those 3 are in SF 5, Capcom would have to really be ignorant not to know people want them back.

I don’t know. They could use the same kind of models they used for the Strider remake.
Going for smaller and cheaper games is a good plans these days.

I totally agree with Dat_Nigga.
For the longest time, I have always though that there would be three characters in addition to the five this time to make the icons even out:

It’s really just a theory, but adding Alex, Karin and R. Mika would be perfect!

They are only 3 more spots left so it does make sense to add 3 more characters into the game.

I really hope they don’t try to redesign the characters from Rival Schools, they look great just they way they are (although some alternate costumes would be cool though).

True, however Strider is a massively popular character thx to the Marvel games as well as his own games. It was automatically going to draw a lot of people, so even though it was a budget title, it had a high chance to make major profit. Even as a budget title, would Rival Schools appeal enough to the mainstream to make a profit? That would be Capcom’s concern.

If they make it right then I am sure Rival Schools will sell well. Plus it is a Capcom fighting game so it’ll be great

If Karin makes it in to USF4, I will actually buy the game. If the fifth character is Batsu, I will definitely at least PLAY USF4.

I wonder if Sakura will return in RS3

Batsu won’t be the fifth character. He isn’t a female and has already been in a fighting game.

I dunno, Batsu is kinda androgynous, in a sexy way.

Not in the slightest?
And even if he was androgynous, the new character is decidedly female.

If you saw some of the fanart I’ve seen, you’d all agree Batsu is androgynous as fuck. Looking like Marth without a sword

Regardless of me wanting Karin to be saved for the next installment, this’ll be a day one purchase if she was announced at all. I better prepare for her return with some ggpo matches lol.

But that’s fanart tho, not official Capcom art. Fanart is always fucking up appearances…

I may or may not have heard the three free spots will be filled by Necro, Haggar and Maki.

lol. necro in the sf4 engine

Don’t play with my feelings… No way Mika, Karin and Alex are going to be announced anytime soon. For an USF4 Max on PS4 maybe.
And a new RS? Nah STOP IT ALREADY FOOLS.

If 3 more characters are going to follow the 5th character.

It better be Charlie God damn it.
