Capcom goes for cheap tricks with thirsty Street Fighter 6 swimsuits
Cammy, Chun-Li, Luke, and more are set to receive swimsuit outfits in a new update for Street Fighter 6, and very little is left to the imagination. Some fighting game series, like Dead Or Alive, are renowned for their overtly sexual depictions of female characters, and some new outfits in Street Fighter 6 are approaching the same territory. As revealed in the Capcom Spotlight showcase, Sagat is the next DLC character heading to Street Fighter 6, on August 5, 2025. Alongside the new character, Capcom is set to finally roll out some new outfits for some of the other characters, over a year and a half after Outfit 3's launch in December 2023. While many fans have been disappointed by the lack of alternate outfits in Street Fighter 6, when compared to previous entries, Capcom has slammed the bikini panic button in what feels like a desperate cash grab to distract from the lengthy wait. As revealed in the showcase, Outfit 4 for characters Cammy, Luke, Chun-Li, Manon, Jamie, Kimberly, and A.K.I. are all swimsuits. As pointed out by Street Fighter director and designer Takayuki Nakayama on X, the Cammy and Chun-Li swimsuits closely resemble their appearance in artwork produced for the original Street Fighter 2. While we might like to think things have progressed since 1991, when Street Fighter 2 first came out, some of the outfits here are very revealing, especially when you compare the female costumes with the ones for Luke and Jamie. Other characters on the Street Fighter 6 roster are set to receive their fourth costumes at a later date, although it's unclear if they'll also be swimwear.

Yara Sameh Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson is the latest addition to the eclectic cast of "Street Fighter", Legendary Entertainment's feature adaptation of the classic Capcom video game. The call sheet ranges from A-lister Jason Momoa as Blanka to heartthrob Noah Centineo as Ken to country singer Orville Peck as Vega and Andrew Schulz as Dan Hibiki. Joe Anoa'i, aka WWE superstar Roman Reign, and martial artist-actor Andrew Koji (Warrior) are on the roll call as battler Akuma and lead character Ryu, respectively. Callina Liang (Presence) is playing Chun-Li. The rapper turned actor and entrepreneur will play Balrog, a disgraced boxer who is also the bodyguard of the villain. Sources say Jackson is deep into training for the part and will be doing his stunts for the adaptation. Kitao Sakurai (The Eric Andre Show) is directing the feature, which begins production in August in Australia. Legendary is co-developing and co-producing alongside Capcom. While the film's plot remains under wraps, Street Fighter, launched in 1987, is a series of fighting games revolving around intense one-on-one battles between martial artists. The games are often centered around a global fighting tournament organized by M. Bison, the leader of the evil organization Shadaloo. Street Fighter has sold over 55 million units worldwide since its launch, making it one of the most well-known and highest-grossing video game franchises of all time. The Grammy-winning Jackson, who has sold over 30 million albums, is known in Hollywood circles for his TV empire fueled by the various Power series for Starz.
