Capcom has released a new trailer today for “A Shadow Falls,” the free story mode expansion for Street Fighter 5 that’s going to be released soon. The trailer gives us background on the entire conflict that sets the stage in the cinematic story mode, we find out what M. Bison has done to bring the World Warriors together.
“Seven Black Moons are deployed by Shadaloo, granting M. Bison unimaginable power, as the earth falls into darkness,” we’re told.
The trailer reveals that this Dictator and his evil organization Shadaloo have spread chaos and destruction in the world with something called the Black Moon. Basically, they are electromagnetic pulses that are capable of shutting down entire cities.
Ryu, Ken, and Chun-Li see these moons appear in the sky mysteriously and decide they have to do something about it, so they go on an epic journey across the world to find fragment pieces that are instrumental in stopping the Black Moons before its too late.
Existing and upcoming Street Fighter 5 characters make cameos as well, they will have their own agendas and motivations, so the story mode is going to keep players very interested. The next Street Fighter 5 update is going to add Ibuki and Balrog to the game.
It’s also the next update that brings the much-awaited Street Fighter 5 story mode, the update will be released on July 1st.
