That silly story costume is a bonus
Street Fighter V‘s third season technically started with Sakura and the launch of theArcade Editionof the game, but Blanka will be its first post-relaunch addition. He’ll be the lead in for Falke, Cody, G, and Sagat as V continues to truck on, and you may get a look at his moveset in the overview video below.
He seems more versatile with the addition ofV‘s trappings, but the real reason I love Blanka? His normals are off-the-chain. He has a restrained goofiness to him, which can be hitched to the extreme absurdity ofhis story mode outfitinVto make him even crazier. He’s been one of my top fiveStreet Fighterchoices sinceIIand I haven’t regretted making him a staple ever since.
Blank will roll intoStreet Fighter Vtomorrow on PC and PS4.
