« Akuma coming to Street Fighter V on Dec. 20, 2016, first character of season two DLC »

The teaser video back at Red Bull Proving Grounds national finals ultimately led up to this: Akuma is coming to Street Fighter V.

This full reveal also kicks off the second season of new downloadable characters planned for 2017. This version of Akuma still has him wearing his signature dark gi while his hairstyle gets a more vibrant design.

The announcement trailer, featured after the jump, shows off various new moves with classic ones returning. His V-Trigger seems to be using aspects of Shin Akuma such as the ability to create two air fireballs. Akuma also gains use of his signature Raging Demon during V-Trigger.

Akuma releases on Dec. 20, 2016. Also releasing that day is the second season pass, which will cost $29.99 with extra outfits and colors in addition to the new characters. If you are at PlayStation Experience 2016, you can try Akuma out now!
