Trailer: The 45th and final Street Fighter V character is here

The saga of Street Fighter V has come to a close with the arrival of Luke. His launch updates the game’s roster to a whopping 45 playable fighters.

Use the force

Luke’s gameplay is very offense-focused, excelling at keeping pressure on his opponents in order to set up a variety of attack opportunities. For example, “Flash Knuckle” is a highly effective combo finisher where each punch button leads to a different forward-moving attack. Luke’s distance game comes in the form of a projectile called “Sand Blaster,” which allows him to shoot energy from his hands and deal with opponents at mid-to-long range. To round out his arsenal, Luke is armed with a unique V-System that fills his V-Timer as he inflicts damage, rewarding an offensive playstyle.

Capcom

The last addition to the now gigantic Street Fighter V roster, Luke is available now. You an add him to your copy of the game via the Season 5 Character Pass, the Season 5 Premium Pass, or a’la carte. If you go the later route, he’s priced in at $5.99 USD, or 100,000 in Fight Money.

Capcom also points out, that although the is the last major addition to the game, SFV will continue to see attention in 2022. March will bring both the Capcom Pro Tour 2022 DLC, as well as a “new battle balance adjustment”.
