Some characters bear more unique features, such as Dhalsim and Blanka. Her new design shows that she “aged elegantly” and is now a master teaching younger students. Fujioka wanted to respect this design while updating Chun-Li for Street Fighter 6.

The most iconic character from the series, Ryu, bears an “aged master look that shows all the training that he’s done.” Several elements hint at his age, such as his beard or his sash, reminiscent of his master Gouken.įujioka saw Ken as “fiery and explosive” and wanted to translate this into his design.
