Ken Joins Street Fighter V Roster

During the annual Street Fighter panel at San Diego Comic-Con, Capcom announced Ken has joined the Street Fighter V roster. One of the key protagonists in the Street Fighter series, Ken brings an array of new abilities to Street Fighter V, where his tricky mix-ups and flashy combos have the ability to bewilder opponents and deal huge damage. Ken joins the six previously-announced characters Ryu, Chun-Li, Charlie Nash, M. Bison, Cammy and Birdie, with plenty more new and returning characters still to come.

The first online beta program for Street Fighter V will be exclusive to PlayStation 4 players and will run for five days, starting July 23rd. Those who pre-order the game through select retailers or through PlayStation Network will be granted automatic access to the beta. Additional beta programs will be taking place throughout the rest of the year and more details will be shared at a later date.
