I just realized the official Street Fighter Vine account gives some hints about fighting style and story in their animated bios!
Rashid
Occupation: Eldest son of a wealthy Middle Eastern Family
Fight Style: Parkour
Skills: Puzzle solving
Necalli
Occupation: Emissary of the Gods
Fight Style: Violent taking advantage of physique
Skills: Animal possession
Parkour? Really?
I’d accepted dirty fighting, or gymnastics…
I guess I’ll buy it only for the old characters then. So glad that Karen is back!
Horrible news in my opinion… Seems like they just aren’t taking the concept of having a “fighting style” seriously anymore, which is a shame because that’s kind of a hallmark of the series.
