BrutalGamer Bringing you Brutally Honest feedback from today's entertainment industry.
The latest World Warrior is here for Street Fighter 6. The electrifying C. Viper has arrived as the latest part of the Year 3 Character Pass.
The shocking C. Viper
Having first made her entrance in Street Fighter IV, C. Viper is back for more in SF6. An undercover agent, working within SiRN, Viper has cast aside her false face, and moved to take down the remnants of M. Bison’s Shadaloo organization herself.
Viper lands for Street Fighter 6 as a part of the game’s third season of content, and represents the “halfway point” for the plan. That’s according to publisher Capcom, who’ll be following up with SFIII’s Alex and Ingrid in the months to come.
Getting back to Viper though, she’s looking pretty shocking, with her electrical attacks intact for her latest appearance.
As you a see there, C. Viper will be included in all of Street Fighter 6‘s modes. That means Fighting Ground, World Tour, and Battle Hub. Like most other content drops for the game too, she’ll include one new outfit, with a version of her classic duds being purchasable with in-game “Fighter Coins or by maxing out your bond with her in World Tour mode.” Nice to have the option.
C. Viper is out now for all versions of Street Fighter 6, including for the Switch 2, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (via Steam).
Additional… additions
C. Viper’s arrival is probably enough to get most Street Fighter fans back into the game. But nevertheless, Street Fighter 6 isn’t done just yet. While the Year 3 Character Pass will roll on, so will the updates. And in that arena, Capcom is dropping more of ’em right now. Actually, quite a few more. While some might be acquired tastes, there’s a great-looking alt-skin for Zangief that should make some fighting game fans happy.
Check it all out below.
