Nash’s Genbu attire lurks in the shadows of the Shop!
Yesterday marked a monumental day for fans and players of Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition, as the long-awaited and much-requested input delay reduction patch was finally released, along with some other bugs squashed and stealth balance changes implemented. However, their appears to have been an unforeseen bug introduced into the game with the update, impacting the in-game Shop’s 3D Model Viewer for costumes.
Though Nash’s Cannon Spike costume has now skated its way into Menat’s Fighting Chance, the undead soldier appears to be experiencing some unintended wardrobe woes as well. Interestingly, if you go to view Nash’s previously-released Halloween outfit with the Shop’s new 3D Model Viewer, a feature added in AE that allows players to see what an attire will look like in-game, you will instead get an unintentional look at Nash’s “Genbu” costume, an outfit that is exclusively available to FUDOH|Fujimura to celebrate his victory in the RAGE Master League Genbu Cup, back on May 28th, 2016.
Similar attires have been awarded to Echo Fox Tokido’s Akuma, for winning the Byakko Cup back in August, and to SZY|Mizuha’s Chun-Li, as the Champion of RAGE’S Suzaku Cup, in October 2016. There is speculated to be one more of these player-exclusive outfits, to be awarded to the winner of the upcoming Seiryu Cup, likely to be held in 2019.
As this outfit is not intended to be purchasable by other players, Capcom will be preforming an hour of emergency server maintenance tonight, from 5:00 P.M. to 6:00 P.M. PT (7:00-8:00 P.M. CT, 8:00-9:00 P.M. ET,) to correct the issue. You can see the official Tweet from the SFV Server Status Twitter account, below. In the meantime, you can enjoy a brief look at this special outfit, which only sports two Colors to choose from.
[Bug] When displaying the 3D model of Nash’s Halloween costume in the in-game shop, the model for Nash’s Genbu costume is mistakenly displayed. Nash’s Genbu costume is not available for purchase. We will conduct server maintenance today from 5-6pm PDT to resolve this issue.
