Get Ready to RISEUP – we will have a special preview of STREET FIGHTER V at this month’s Ranking Battle event.
There will be two stations available for players to get a hands on experience in two player offline matches. It will be the gamescom build, so try Ken and Necalli!
We will be running some house rules to move people through the preview with three matches on, then move to next players for most of the time. We will also schedule some exhibitions with top players later in the day.
Thank you to Capcom for the opportunity to showcase the new game.
