Metro City has a new mayor, and it’s former jailbird Cody. The blonde bombshell will bring his biceps to Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition from 26th June, as well as a selection of costumes honouring both former mayor Mike Haggar and the protagonist’s Final Fight days.
You can check out the character in action in the trailer embedded above. He’ll be available for $5.99 or 100,000 Fight Money; alternatively you’ll be able to snag him alongside Sakura, Blanka, Falke, Cody, G, and Sagat as part of the title’s latest Season Pass.

Awesome, June 26 can’t come soon enough.
I really liked Cody in Alpha 3 and SFIV. Looking forward to playing him whenever I get this game.
TURN THE BEAT BACK!
Also: Was that Kenny Omega in the live action part?
Ok Capcom I wasn't expecting Kenny frigging Omega in that!
@DerMeister yup, that’s him
@DerMeister Yep according to Kenny's Twitter account it was him.
I will say his Haggar outfit just looks ridiculous it looks like he is actually wearing Haggar's clothes and they are way to big for him.
@Tasuki I kinda think that might be the point of that Haggar costume. Just there for nostalgia.
@shonenjump86 Makes me.kinda wish they put Hagger in the game as well. Speaking of Nostalgia I did like the nod to the origianl Final Fight opening they did there for that trailer.
@Tasuki it was pretty cool. I know you aren’t too high on Street Fighter V but have you played Arcade Edition yet?
@shonenjump86 Not yet, Right now I am waiting for the 30th anniversary to come out got it preordered so I can get IV so next sale that has SFV I more then likely will pick it up for Completionist sake of the whole series.
Here's another pro wrestling tie to Final Fight, Mike Haggar's look was inspired by retired UFC/WWE star Dan Sevren.
@Tasuki Why WWE never did Sevren V Shamrock is beyond me but then I remember that this is the same company that didn't do Hogan V Flair at WM 8 or Austin V Hogan at WM 18.
Give me SAGAT !!!!!
Didn't recognised him at first with his slicked back hair.
Give me my makoto capcom!
damn you capcom, daaammmn yooouuu.
He looks like fun though.
Ive got my 30th anniversary preordered and canNOT wait!!!
@Gmork___ Makoto got 2nd place in Capcom’s most popular character poll late last year (second to Sakura), so...hopefullly season 4, eh?
@Gmork___ only 8 more hours until the 30th Anniversary Collection releases! The only bad thing about it I’ve seen so far is the trophy list...can easily get everything in a couple days without trying very hard.
@adf86 Shamrock and Sevren did have a small feud in WWE. Rumor has it that they were to have a bigger one. Its been said that originally Dan Severn was going to be a part of the Undertaker's Ministry and according to Severn WWE wanted him to get the number "666" tattooed on his forehead, which is the mark of the beast and was a play off of his nickname "The Beast". When Severn refused it's been said than Vince wasn't pleased that he refused the beast gimmick and as punishment Dan got busted down to midcard status and his push was over which Dan then left the WWE shortly. Shamrock as we know went on to feud with Taker then.
As for Hogan and Austin That was the plan originally, but they didn't want Hogan (who was heel at the time) beating Austin who was the babyface so instead they changed it at the last minute to have Rock face Hogan and Austin to face Scott Hall, which is one of the reasons Austin left the company shortly after.
@Tasuki On top of the fact he had serious knee issues and the pile-driver Owen Heart gave him which caused spinal shock and a few fractured discs didn't help things either. Once Austin left the Attitude era died (personal opinion) yet you hear Triple H saying he and DX created it and ended it.
@smelly_jr Oooohhh I KNOOOOWWWW!!!!!! i was one of those that voted for her!
Fingers crossed.
For S4 im wishing for...
1-makoto 2-oro 3-Gouken 4-abel and two brand new. Though if i REEEALLY had my way id be makoto, oro & 4 new characters including an apprentice of FANG!!!!
😍
@Gmork___ Truth be told, I'm a total Street Fighter noob (played 2 and 4 a little, but never really got into the series until 5), and last night was my first experience with Third Strike LOL. But I've heard people talk up Makoto, so...I plan on spending some quality time with her.
Despite all the Makoto popularity, last night I played 10 online matches and only fought Ryu and Yun (once each), and the rest were all Kens...what's up with that!
@smelly_jr well i think shes popular with the hardcore/pro sf crowd and not the casual players. Id imagine due to her unconventional moveset. Like dhalsim shes weird and hard to use. Really have to know what youre doing with her.
@Gmork___ Ah, I see. I've just been playing as Ryu for the past couple months to get the fundamentals down (controlling range with hadouken/dragon punch, getting my timing for footsies and blocking). I really need to get out of my comfort zone and main a couple more characters, before my progress stagnates LOL.
I'll probably go with Chun-Li and Ibuki instead, since I can kinda carry my skills between 3rd Strike and V (I think). A friend of mine (who I want to beat one day) mains Makoto anyway! And I hate having a mirror match and getting schooled, LMAO...
