With fan favorite Alex standing in the background, Street Fighter V’s City in Chaos stage doesn’t need much help generating hype. Even so, that hasn’t stopped Capcom from creating a couple of killer tracks to pair with the action.

Thanks to the arena’s appearance in the most recent stress tests, Versus Fighting TV was able to capture these themes and upload them for the rest of the community to check out.

How do you think these songs sound in comparison to some of the other themes we’ve heard so far? Let us know in the comments.

The Umeshoryu is a sure way to keep opponents on their toes, but failed attempts at this top-level trademark often find the would-be psychic suffering from a severe lack of health, sometimes coupled with a staggering dose of stun. Thanks to Street Fighter V’s Crush Counter system and the fact that it applies to recovering uppercuts, the upcoming title presents players with an even better reason to be mindful when attempting hard reads.

In the video below, wauhti offers a look at the options Cammy can bring to the battle when presented with a counter opportunity. These options call for various amounts of super meter, and some require the use of a V-Trigger. As an added bonus, Cammy’s distance from the opponent after combo completion changes depending on the combo ender, potentially allowing for varied follow-ups.

In their latest episode of “Breaking Ultra Street Fighter IV,” Core-A Gaming’s explores the stranger side of Capcom’s flagship fighter.

With such a long life, players have had more than enough time to discover plenty of strange interactions within the game’s engine, but there’s still a good chance you’ve not encountered all five of the things presented in the footage. Below, Gerald talks about dying during a Red Focus, Akuma chipping out opponents with Demon Armageddon, general death animations, and more.

Sadly, this is to be the last episode of the series, but fans have a Street Fighter V-focused version of the show to look forward to after the game launches next month.

Chances are you’ve had a chance to look over the stills of the recently discovered Street Fighter V alternates, but pictures can only show so much. To get a better look how these outfits look in the heat of battle, r/Kappasvoice put together a quick video showcasing each new wardrobe offering.

In the footage, you’ll get to see every currently-known alternate costume in motion, from battle-damaged Bison to officer Chun-Li and everything in between. You’ll likely notice the distinct lack of an alternate option for Nash, but we can hope footage of the Frankensteined fighter’s latest apparel will surface soon.

Which costume do you plan to wear into battle? Let us know in the comments.

The Beefy Aether Doods recently released a new Rivals of Aether tutorial, this time teaching viewers how to perform and effectively use the Cactuar Dash.

Cactuar Dashing in Rivals of Aether works much like its counterpart in Super Smash Bros. Melee, and provides players with a way to move in a style similar to dash dancing but without range limitations. Like most higher level techniques in Rivals of Aether, this option doesn’t take hours of training mode to master, but will certainly prove useful under the right circumstances.

For more tips from the Beefy Aether Doods, be sure to check out their tutorials on reverse aerial rushing and ledge canceling.
