Capcom’s fighting game is entering its fourth year. The nimble Eskrima expert has arrived on all platforms, complete with new outfits and balance updates.
Philippine martial artist Yasmine is the latest addition to Capcom’s Street Fighter 6 and is available starting today as part of the Year 4 roster on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PC, Switch 2, and PS4.
Fighting Style, Bayani Mode, and Future DLC Fighters
Capcom writes: “Yasmine learned the art of Eskrima alongside her Kuya (older brother) under the guidance of her Lolo (grandfather). Defeat the competition with her karambit knife in the Fighting Ground and the Battle Hub as Yasmine searches for her missing brother.”
If you want Yasmine, you’ll need the Year 4 Character Pass or the Year 4 Ultimate Pass. Yasmine’s Outfit 1 shows her in Eskrima combat gear, while Outfit 2 features her in her school uniform. The second option can be unlocked by filling the Acquisition Gauge completely in Avatar Arcade Mode or with Fighter Coins.
Yasmine uses high-speed techniques in battle; her style is both aggressive and acrobatic. This gives her plenty of opportunities to chase down opponents or extend her combos. Successfully executing her moves puts Yasmine into a charged state known as Bayani Mode.
With Yasmine, the Year 4 roster makes its debut in Street Fighter 6. Alongside her, Arjun, Bosch, and Tifa from Final Fantasy 7 Remake will be added later.
Battle Balance Adjustments and Collaboration Event
Yasmine’s release comes with several battle balance adjustments. You can find specific details on theStreet Fighter website.
Meanwhile, the “The Way of the Oni × The Way of the Fist” collaboration event begins on August 7, during which you’ll receive special skins and the Battle Hub will feature an Onimusha-inspired theme.
