The roster of Street Fighter V will be receiving another blast from the past in the form of Street Fighter Alpha 3's hardy heroine, Rainbow Mika. The grappling goddess has been given a slight redesign, but is still as voluptuous as ever, with curves in all of the right places – and an outfit that leaves very little to the imagination.
A wrestler inspired into the ring by body builder Zangief, the so-called seven coloured bomber is joined by her tag-team partner Nadeshiko, who'll assist in battle. "By calling Nadeshiko at the right time using R. Mika's V-Trigger ability, you'll be able to setup sneaky attacks and punishing command grab mix-ups that are sure to knock the stuffing out of your opponent," community manager Peter Rosas explained on the PlayStation Blog.
This sequel's definitely getting stranger with every new announcement, so we're not overly surprised to learn that the curvy character will be able to pull out a microphone as part of her V-Skill, which she'll then be able to fling at foes once she's done jabbering into it. The new challenger will be on display at PAX Prime this weekend, so expect to see more footage from the show floor.

Not sure about the design, but she looks really fun to play.
cool another character im not interested in. maybe ill play her when she gets an alt costume. i hate how she looks, always have.
Glad to see her return. She was a favorite of mine in Alpha 3.
Wait...people are actually not liking the fact she looks like a wrestler, both in body and costume? o.O
And still 0 SFIII characters, looks like SFIV all over again.
Ohh no!! Boobs, let's call the social justice warriors.
Glad to see her back!!! She was great in Alpha 3.
@sinalefa
I think we will see either Alex or Sean for sure.
@sinalefa Not surprising SF III is the black sheep of the original SF series. Not to many fan favorites from that game.
Got to play a bit of the beta last night and I can't believe how well it runs and looks. Can't wait for this to come out.
@Tasuki
I thought 1 was the black sheep.
And still further revisions of IV gave us Dudley, Ibuki,Makoto, Yun, Yang, Elena and Hugo. Still miss Alex, as @sub12 mentions.
@sinalefa
3 is solid, the animation from the CSP3 hardware set still looks amazing today. With that being said, I prefer the Alpha series over 3.
I think Alex will get the nod, a lot of people are clamoring for it, just from a design aesthetic, he still holds up very well today.
That headbutt at 0:25 was pretty dumb.
I honestly never understood why people liked her so much, but now those fans will be pleased. I like the Alpha love they're showing, now just give me Rose and Adon!
@sub12 they're ostrich eggs though
Looks like a fun character.
Awesome!
Nice to see. Definitely digging her muscular look.
She's awesome but I'm sure someone will be a cryhole over her.
@viciousarcanum Welcome to the game industry...
Wow, that Ultra was LITERALLY a$$!
That tag-team style though looks pretty cool for a 1v1 fighting game.
@Tasuki I was under the impression that most people loved SF3 over 2 and 4.
