Apparently, Capcom's gone ahead and announced Street Fighter V's official release date at the Paris Games Week expo. The PlayStation 4 console exclusive brawler will reportedly break some bones on the 16th February in Europe and North America.
What's more, the publisher has also revealed that Dhalsim, the rather flexible veteran fighter, will feature in the title's initial character roster. Attendees can give him a trial run, too, as he's supposedly playable at the show.
All of this information comes from Eurogamer.pt. Surprise, surprise, the original story has been taken down, so we can probably assume that this is a leak that'll likely be confirmed at Sony's press conference - which is kicking off in just over an hour. There's always one, eh?

Inject it in my veins now, Capcpom
At least Capcom has one IP they haven't completely mucked up. I suppose you could throw Monster Hunter in there as well.
Having played the betas I'm excited for SFV, Rashid was great from the new characters
Cool!!
I'm downloading Street Fighter 5 that very day.
Get ready for the next battle? It almost sounds like a Tekken character is joining the roster. Lol. Anyways, Feb is really close. I didn't think it would come out that soon. Better start saving for that PS4.
So based on the silhouette they showed, I'd say the post launch DLC/Fight money characters are from left to right: Alex, Balrog (boxer), ???, Ibuki, Juri, ???
That's closer than I thought. I hope I can get a PS4 before then!
Perfect way to kick off gaming in 2016. This and Deus Ex: Mankind Divided.
