Necalli is the first brand-new fighter in Street Fighter V

During EVO 2015, Capcom revealed its all-new character Necalli to its roster of combatants in Street Fighter V. Also at this event, the Japanese game developer revealed SFV would ship with the availability of 16 characters (including 4 brand-new characters), and of future characters which could be obtained by earning them with your hard work playing the game, or by purchasing them with actual money (without the need of buying additional versions of the same title).

Here’s a description recently released by Capcom:

About Necalli
Possessing a wide variety of savage and close range attacks, all of Necalli’s moves have been forged through the heat of battle to ensure he’s inflicting maximum pain upon his opponents. Making full use of the Battle System mechanics, Necalli’s V-Skill allows him to pound the ground with both fists, creating an explosion that damages the enemy whereas the powerful V-Trigger allows him to channel a mysterious energy that changes his hair colour and alters his personality for a short period of time. Capcom will be revealing more information on Necalli’s origin and storyline in the coming months so stay tuned for more details.

Street Fighter 5 is coming to the PlayStation 4 and Windows PC in Spring 2016.

Take a look at the screenshots and trailer released by Capcom PR recently tonight.
