If you play games because you enjoy learning about the game’s story, then you might be pleased to learn that Street Fighter V will be getting a story mode. The story mode was actually announced and confirmed earlier this year where it was originally pegged for a release in June, but it seems that it has been slightly delayed.
The good news is that the delay is only for a couple of days. Like we said, the original release was for June but now according to Capcom’s post on the PlayStation Blog, the update has since been set for the 1st of July where it will be released at midnight Pacific Time. Even better news is that the update will also bring about a new character to the SFV roster in the form of Balrog.
According to Capcom, “Balrog is one of the most iconic characters in Street Fighter history, first appearing as one of the Four Kings of Shadaloo in Street Fighter II as a boss character. He’s always been one of the most vicious characters to ever appear in the series, using his devastating boxing style to knock out his opponents.”
The update will also bring about the story mode as promised, and the Ibuku character. There will also be new stages and costumes for players to choose from, all of which can be unlocked either using real money or fight money. In the meantime players can check out Balrog’s reveal trailer in the video above.
