Ending the mystery once and for all, Capcom has announced that Decapre is the fifth and final new character to be added in Ultra Street Fighter IV. First appearing as a non-playable character in Street Fighter Alpha 3 as one of M. Bison’s Dolls, Decapre has a partial mask on her face that hides a giant burn mark, while her “psycho power infused attacks” allow her to share her pain with her opponents.
Having a little fun with the announcement, check out this video to see Decapre, Hugo, Poison, Elena, and Rolento in action (Ultra Street Fighter IV gameplay starts around 1:15):
If you’re unsure of what exactly is included with Ultra Street Fighter IV, and when it’s releasing, Capcom explained everything for you:
In Ultra Street Fighter IV, Poison, Hugo, Elena, Rolento and Decapre join the fight, complete with new animations and their own unique play styles, bringing the final roster count to a massive 44 characters. Six new battle environments (including Pitstop 109, Cosmic Elevator, Half Pipe and more) provide a thrilling and colorful backdrop to the action. Direct fan feedback was gathered on all of Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition’s original 39 characters and core system mechanics in order to achieve the most balanced Street Fighter ever. In addition to the action-packed new content and the finely-tuned rebalanced gameplay, the new version features a host of new features and modes that are sure to test even the most well traveled world warrior.
